By the end of this article, you'll undoubtedly have mastered the principles of industrial decor and be able to find the look that suits you best. Let's get started!

I) A feminine and refined industrial bedroom

An industrial interior is recognizable by its robust and raw appearance. One could therefore say that it does not correspond with what one would call refined and Soft . And yet, it's still possible to combine these two aspects to create a trendy and comfortable bedroom . So, what exactly is an industrial bedroom with a feminine style?

In fact, it's simply about integrating a few feminine pieces into a bedroom, without losing the "factory" feel of the space. In other words, it means the initial decor of the room will be industrial, but we'll add a few accessories to soften its raw and somewhat primitive effect.

To adopt this style, you need to incorporate all the elements that define industrial design, such as large wooden or steel furniture, pendant lights, and cabinets straight out of the 19th century. At the same time, you'll make some changes. Instead of painting the walls in dark colors, opt for pastel shades like powder pink , Mayan blue , or almond green . You can also paint your brick walls white to brighten them up. Add a few potted plants to your bedroom, either on bedside tables, closets, or your desk. Finally, don't neglect decorative touches like multicolored cushions, frames with feminine photos, and so on.

II) A cozy industrial bedroom

Aside from aesthetics, the main thing we want in a bedroom is comfort. That's why opting for a bedroom that's both industrial and cozy is a great idea. And to achieve this, you need to keep a few important rules in mind:

First, choose furniture that makes you feel comfortable at home. Opt for a large metal or wooden bed, a large wardrobe for your belongings, and so on. Next, don't neglect the layout. An industrial-style house is often open-plan, meaning it doesn't have many partitions. This is necessary to ensure comfortable movement . You should therefore do the same with your bedroom, avoiding as much as possible the inclusion of elements that could obstruct passage.

Finally, make the most of your space. This is especially important if you have a small apartment or house. If so, consider using platforms to divide two separate rooms (e.g., the bed and the bathroom if it's integrated into the bedroom).

III) An industrial-style bedroom, somewhere between retro and modern

The industrial style is very similar to the vintage style, as both use fairly old pieces. Therefore, it's not at all difficult to combine them to create a unique and original bedroom .

To achieve this look, simply recycle your old furniture that you haven't used for years. Repaint or sand it, and you're done. Opt for metal furniture (steel, zinc, etc.) as these better reflect the vintage aesthetic. Don't forget to maintain it regularly to prevent rust (although a rusty color is perfect for an industrial-style bedroom).

Regarding the walls, try to strip them back as much as possible. Leave them with their imperfections and stains. Even remove the cement plaster that fills them, to allow the red bricks to show through. This will create a very industrial, vintage, and chic effect. However, if you don't like this look, you can cover them with brick wallpaper or other patterns, similar to a factory-style office. As for decorative accessories, favor metal objects such as light fixtures, statuettes, and also paintings that reflect the industrial world and style.

IV) An industrial-style London bedroom

In recent years, interiors with a London vibe have become increasingly popular. Apparently, they create a very trendy, youthful, and relaxed look . But what if you combined it with industrial style? To do so, here are a few rules you should follow:

To begin, choose sheets or bed linens with the Union Jack pattern. That alone will already give your room a London feel. Next, add decorative accessories that evoke English life and culture, such as a small model of London Bridge, framed photos of Tower Bridge or iconic English buses, and clocks reminiscent of Big Ben.

For the paint, opt for neutral tones like gray, even for the bricks. And don't forget, choose furniture made of wood, steel, or zinc to really bring out the industrial look .

V) A rustic industrial bedroom

Do you love nature, originality, and that "New York chic" look? Then this decorating idea is for you: combining industrial style with rustic elements. But before we talk about this kind of decor, let's review the definition of " rustic decor ."

By definition, rustic is a simple, unpretentious, and somewhat rustic style of decoration.
Nostalgic. It makes extensive use of natural elements like green plants, wood, etc. If you want to achieve a rustic industrial bedroom , you should incorporate these elements into yours. More specifically, you'll want to use a lot of wooden furniture (whether for the bed, nightstand, wardrobe, or storage) . If possible, opt for fairly thick, unfinished wood.

You'll also be adding plants, preferably trailing ones that you can hang on your brick walls . Don't paint your beams, windows, or door. Leave them in their natural state, but with a little maintenance to prevent mold. Finally, opt for wood flooring like parquet, or perhaps concrete to really highlight the style.

VI) A Scandinavian industrial chamber

Scandinavian decor is the current trend, so it would be a wise choice for your bedroom. But for added originality, combine it with industrial style . So, what will you do?

To create a Scandinavian industrial bedroom, you'll not only choose a large bed (king size if possible) , but you'll also cover it with a cozy duvet, plush pillows, and plenty of cushions. Indeed, Scandinavian decor emphasizes comfort , warmth, and a welcoming atmosphere.

Add a faux fur rug at the foot of your bed or desk. Don't forget to use soft lighting for a cozy and inviting atmosphere . Finally, you can repurpose your old furniture for an even better result.

VII) A contemporary industrial room

You'd like your bedroom to have a somewhat industrial style, without it being dark and cramped. Then opt for the contemporary industrial look. The principle is simple: you'll furnish your room with robust and solid materials, metal pieces, functional furniture reminiscent of factory work, and concrete or brick walls.

However, you won't neglect ventilation, space, and lighting, just as you would in a contemporary home. Instead of painting your brick or concrete walls a dark color, opt for white . This will make your room appear larger. Don't hesitate to add some large windows for more ventilation and light. Choose minimalist furniture as well. You should only put the essentials in the room. For flooring, stick with hardwood or oak.

VIII) An industrial-style room with a "recycled" aesthetic

To conclude this article on a high note, let's focus on upcycled decor. After all, that's the very essence of industrial style: recycling and renovating . So, there's no need to buy new materials. You'll simply repurpose old furniture and objects you already have in your home. You can also visit flea markets and antique shops to find rare vintage pieces. Ideal upcycled items for an industrial bedroom include wooden pallets (as a bed frame) , industrial lamps,
the steel chair…
