If there is one style that celebrates humility, practicality and affordability, then it is surely the industrial style. What started out as an efficient work environment several decades ago soon morphed into a distinct style that made its way slowly from functional loft-style homes to expansive villas and contemporary penthouses. Cutting across generations, it is a trend that never seems to die down! And there are few places in the house which revel in the beauty and unassuming ease of the industrial style as much as the kitchen.

If you have not already given it a shot, 2015 is a great time to shift over to an industrial-style kitchen. And we have an amazing collection of 100 industrial style kitchens to inspire you along the way. While some blend contemporary aesthetics with industrial elements, others stick to the classic, loft-inspired design. Delve in and explore!

1. Flooring and Walls

This is a style that is all about raw textural beauty at its diverse best. In simpler terms, think brick, tiles and even concrete walls while planning for the industrial kitchen. Subway tile is the go-to trend for industrial and modern style but it can get pretty pricey. For an easy alternative, you can get peel-and-stick subway tile or faux brick wallpaper that will completely transform your kitchen without any serious renovation. This subway tile set from Macy’s comes in four, 10×10 inch panels or you can even get a 33-foot roll of brick wallpaper from Macy’s.

Brick walls obviously are a favorite among homeowners and currently lead the pack, but do not forget the value of exposed steel surfaces and the right flooring, which elevate the kitchen to a whole new level.

From wooden floors with chevron and herringbone patterns to dark, painted flooring that gives the industrial kitchen a truly ‘vintage’ look, the options are endless. Throw in a beautiful subway tiled backsplash and some open shelves, and you have a captivating kitchen.

2. Decor and Kitchen Islands

Ever looked at a truly exceptional industrial-style kitchen and wondered how the homeowner put together such a unique yet mesmerizing space? It goes without saying that picking the right decor and accessories that fit in with the style goes a long way in getting the job done. But beyond the obvious, it is all about giving your kitchen a distinct personality that reflects your own taste, instead of going down the generic path.

The easiest way to add industrial flair to your kitchen is swapping out your normal LED lightbulbs with an Edison-style bulb. Edison bulbs feature a vintage filament that can elevate any normal light fixture. You can get a 6-pack of Edison bulbs on Amazon that are not only stylish but dimmable and multi-functional.

Bring in salvaged items, DIY pendants and chairs, a smart kitchen island, custom shelves and cabinets crafted from old scrap that is collecting dust in the yard or some wonderful flea market finds to usher in this aura of exclusivity.

3. Modern Designs

For some, embracing the industrial look is all about finding a balance between modern refinement and edgy overtones that the style delivers. This curated fusion between both the styles works absolutely beautifully, and you can tone up or down the level of raw, industrial beauty that you want in the kitchen by just adding or removing a few decor pieces over time. A chic industrial kitchen has a certain sense of inviting softness, is more open to glossy, posh cabinets and worktops, and relies heavily on lighting, the ceiling and the walls around it to deliver an industrial flavor.

Gray is a great color choice for the chic industrial kitchen as it combines the steely grit of the industrial style with contemporary sophistication. Those with design commitment issues can start out by adding industrial-styled lighting to their existing kitchen with Edison bulbs, and then altering select pieces over a period of time (such as the bar stools or the cabinets) to find that perfect blend between the modern and the industrial.

Starting out by simply adding a set of metal industrial bar stools such as these from Costaway can immediately elevate the space. The 24-inch stools come in both gunmetal and black to fit your needs and even have an optional chair back.

4. Small Kitchens

Since large loft-inspired kitchens with their giant industrial-style, framed glass windows, double height ceilings and sweeping spaces so often take center stage, there is a perception that the style fails in smaller kitchens. This is completely untrue, as efficiency, frugality and ergonomics are the defining factors of the industrial style, making it ideal for smaller kitchens. Pot racks that allow you to hang all your dishes and kitchenware with ease, shelves that tuck away the unnecessary, and countertops that can take plenty of wear and tear come together to deliver a useful small kitchen that is well and truly industrial in its appeal.

If you’re at a loss on how to bring industrial style into your small kitchen, a bistro set would be the perfect middle-ground. The small metal and wood table with a matching pair of bar stools will add different textures and industrial elements to any kitchen.

Since open plan living areas are quickly becoming the norm, a small industrial kitchen in the corner not only adds a sense of intrigue, but allows you to demarcate spaces easily without worrying about area rugs and false ceilings! Add a few pops of color, some natural greenery, and let in plenty of natural light to give it a more airy, cheerful vibe.

5. Shelving and Storage

Open shelving and lots of it. This is another great way of bringing industrial beauty to your kitchen while expanding the available shelf space. But do not forget about the innate sense of rawness that these shelves need to exude, and if you have a kitchen that is already modern, floating shelves in raw wood or stainless steel offer the necessary contrast.

Industrial-style kitchen shelving allows you to make complete use of the vertical space on offer, along with the use of vintage pot racks and standalone cabinets that maximize available room in even the tiniest kitchen.

For some, industrial style in general is about finding a balance between modern sophistication and the edgy overtones that come with it.

This combination of both styles works great, and you can increase or decrease the level of ruggedness and beauty of the industrial style by simply adding or subtracting some decorative elements from time to time.

A chic industrial kitchen can be soft, glossy and open with luxurious cabinets and countertops. The overall ambiance is just as heavily influenced by the lighting, walls and ceiling, and reflects that unique industrial taste.

4. Small kitchens

Large loft kitchens are inspiring with their giant hints of industrial style. Huge windows, ceilings twice as high as usual, and spacious spaces so often come to the fore, which is why the opinion has formed that this style is not for small kitchens.

But this is completely untrue, because efficiency, economy and ergonomics are the defining features of the industrial style, which makes it ideal for a small kitchen.

Hanging shelving that makes it easy to hang all the kitchen utensils and utensils, shelving and shelves to hide the unnecessary, and countertops that form a large workspace come together to make the usable space of a small kitchen useful, and this well captures the essence of industrial style.

Adding a little color, greenery and plenty of natural light creates an airy and cheerful atmosphere.

5. Shelves and shelving

Open shelving is a great way to add beauty to an industrial style and expand existing shelving. But do not forget about the initial feeling of rawness that these shelves are supposed to create.

If the kitchen has a modern design, the shelves made of rough wood or stainless steel will create the necessary contrast.

Kitchens with these industrial style shelves make the most of vertical space, along with vintage hanging holders and freestanding cabinets that are affordable even for a small kitchen.

After studying this article in detail, you can try to realize the idea in your kitchen or be inspired by bold solutions to develop your own original project.

17 kitchen design ideas with photo

1. Golden elements in a discreet style

Every year more and more families prefer a calm color scheme when choosing a room for dining. The restrained style looks elegant, but often the owners forget to focus on the details and showiness disappears. By adding a little gold to the design, you can easily return the room to chic. Sometimes on an individual basis it is better to add copper or bronze details.

Editor's tip: To succeed, the interior should initially be free of smart, colorful headsets and glossy surfaces. It is important not to overdo it with gold plating. It is enough to choose several of the proposed options: a picture frame, door handles, a faucet, accessories for a dining table, a lamp shade.

It is easier for craftsmen who create a project from scratch to decide on a color solution. A win-win option - neutral (gray, white, beige) shades of walls and furniture are in perfect harmony with gold, expressed in details.

2. Simple and stylish monochrome interior

The surest way to expand the space in a small room is to use white for all surfaces. Monochrome blurs the boundaries and even in the smallest kitchen there is visually more space and light. Do not be afraid that light surfaces require more careful maintenance than any other color. Experts note that light-colored furniture is more practical, because the mess on a white table is not as annoying as it is on a black one.

There is a proven way to avoid comparing a white room to a hospital room. To emphasize monochrome and not blunder, be sure to use contrasting textures. In practice, this is reflected in the combination of different finishing materials: ceramics, wood, brick, glass, gloss, stucco and textiles. The combined reception adds coziness and style to the kitchen.

3. Kitchen design in light colors

If white is associated with boredom for family members, then you should pay attention to other pastel shades: gray, beige, coffee. The presented colors contribute to the creation of a comfortable atmosphere and coziness. They do not overload the space and easily reflect light. The practicality and versatility of the light scale makes it applicable in the interior of both small and large rooms.

4. Interior decoration with wooden facades

Most people associate wooden furniture with practicality, quality factor and long service life. For those who are not ready to give up the natural texture, the editors suggest finding a compromise between white surfaces and wood. As practice shows, the result looks expensive and elegant.

Expert tip: if the room is small, then preference is given to more white surfaces, non-living other shades of brown. In order not to spend a lot of time cleaning the premises, it is better to lower the wooden facades down.

5. Gray tones

Gray is the new white in modern interiors. It is suitable for furniture set, walls or floor. The gray palette is easy to combine with other colors, it balances many decor elements and ennobles the kitchen. Gray looks great in any light: natural or artificial.

6. White and yellow kitchen design

In a room where the windows face north, there is often not enough light. The option with a white and yellow design will be an excellent solution in this case. Light colors can bring extra volume to the space, making it not so dark. Yellow has a positive effect on the psyche of people, improving mood. But the consumer should show a sense of harmony and not overdo it with bright accents, which can become annoying during operation.

7. Russian style kitchen

This is a code name for interior design. Russian style can have different directions: manor, country, Soviet and old Moscow. Thinking about such a decision, it is worth paying attention to the combination of colors. In a given style, it is better to use shades found in nature. Using appropriate prints and decor, you can achieve a special feeling of comfort.

Editor's tip: To decorate a dining area in the Russian style, sometimes two iconic accessories are enough to create a certain mood. It can be a polished samovar, Gzhel or Zhostovo tray.

8. Multi-coloured tiles for floors and work apron

Today, market offers surprise with a variety of tiles of various shapes and textures. The most popular styles: oriental, Russian, metlakh. The tile can be chosen for every taste, but the most advantageous option is a colorful background. The product will successfully harmonize with an eclectic or classic interior. Tile is a versatile material that can be used to finish the floor, walls or work apron. At the same time, there are no restrictions on the dimensions of the room. In a small room, colorful tiles will divert attention from tightness, and in a spacious room, they will help create a feeling of comfort.

Our tip: Tiled finishes work best with monochrome wall and furniture fronts. If monochromatic ceramics are already used, then you can add brightness by painting through a stencil. For this, chalk paint is suitable, which you need to ask in specialized stores.

9. Window sill bar counter

If a kitchen with a rough finish is used as the source material, then it is worth considering the option of converting the window sill into a bar counter or an additional work surface. In modern kitchens, it is often used for breakfast and lunch, even if a separate dining area is provided. In a small room for several people, a window sill bar counter can replace an entire dining table. This design solution allows you to save space for storing paraphernalia.

10.

Slate surface in the room

You can buy a finished product or use slate paint. The peculiarity of the magnetic slate surface is that you can leave notes on it, write recipes, attach spices, and so on. This is also an original idea that will certainly appeal to the little family members.

The solution can be executed as a whole wall, its separate part and a kitchen apron. You can use a temporary option - buy self-adhesive chalk wallpaper.

11. Mirror surfaces

Hanging a large mirror on the wall as a kitchen decoration is the quickest and most effective way to add light to the room. For safety reasons, it is worth using hardened high-quality material. A practical solution is to hang the mirror away from the sink and stove.

Editor's tip: A mirror that is fixed in front of a natural light source is able to reflect more light. In this way, you can visually create the illusion of a second window.

12. Comfortable upholstered furniture

Practicality does not allow most Russians to put soft seats in the dining area. Modern fashion suggests abandoning stereotypes and placing a sofa or sofa directly at the dining table. In small apartments, it is best to use a seating area or bench with cushions.

13. Rational use of transparent furniture

Polycarbonate has firmly settled in the hearts of the inhabitants due to its strength properties and attractive appearance. Transparent interior items are designed to allow light to pass through and expand the space. These tables and chairs are easy to care for, durable and do not clutter up a small kitchen.

14. Dining table in the spotlight

The dining area is always subject to such basic requirements as practicality, convenience, spaciousness. A simple way will allow the room to transform and take on a presentable look. To do this, you need to put the table in such a way that it is the center of attention. Proven tools include the following: room zoning, wall sconces, a chandelier with a beautiful lampshade over the table, as well as elegant cutlery.

15. Furniture in the color of the walls

Regardless of the layout of the room, when the color of the walls and facades match, it always looks spectacular. This solution allows you to expand the boundaries of space in a miniature kitchen. It seems that there are no separating surfaces at all. Light, comfortable atmosphere will help to create only light base colors.

16. All eyes on the bright wall

This is not a new idea, but it can be adjusted according to fashion trends. An accent wall is a great technique to divide a room into several functional areas. As a rule, this is a dining area and a place reserved for cooking.

The design may be economically viable as it is inexpensive but looks impressive enough. As a finish, you can use a fresco, wallpaper with an ornament or a floral pattern. If there are artists in the house, then it will not be difficult for them to make hand-painted. When it comes to the Scandinavian style, a brighter transformation of one wall is appropriate. In modern kitchen design, bright colors and colorful photo wallpapers are allowed.

17. More open space without cabinets

Most housewives will not find it practical to completely abandon wall cabinets, but bulky designs "steal" space. This is especially true for small rooms where utensils are stored in column cabinets. But you can partially replace the headset with comfortable shelves. So the kitchen will appear larger and brighter. Apartment owners who have already tried this solution recommend not to hang shelves near the hob, because cleaning them during operation will take a lot of time and effort.
