Industrial Furniture Is Dark & Worn
Wear and tear is the name of the game. Roughed-up furniture that feels lived-in, like worn paint or distressed surfaces, is classic. The color palette tends to lean toward dark, with rich leather couches and heavy wood or iron furniture, and vintage is always incorporated.
Whether you actually buy furniture second-hand, or you spend three months rent on a vintage-inspired chair from Restoration Hardware, industrial design highlights accents from the era, inspired by old factory or lab pieces. Think industrial bar stools, antique light fixtures, and factory-style cabinets.
