Industrial style furniture and commercial furniture once belonged in warehouses, factories, and in busy kitchens, but today the pieces have found their way into our homes and office. Stylish, decorative and functional, as well as durable, the pieces are sought after by eclectic homeowners, suave decorators and those looking for out-of-the ordinary pieces. The furniture is usually made out of a combination of raw materials such as timbers and other types of wood as well as eye-catching metals of various colors and weight.
Since the pieces are most often heavy duty and are able to fit well into any room, using them to organize a variety of belongings is the perfect purpose for them. Whether you own a bookcase that is filled with the latest best sellers or older classic collectibles or an entertainment center that sits near the prized big screen in the living room to hold your favorite movies or decorative pieces, industrial furniture pieces and those that are considered commercial furniture, blend in perfectly.
TV Stand
Whether it’s one larger stand for under the television, or a set of one, two, three or more shelving units set against a wall to hold videos, remotes, books or other decorative pieces, a piece of industrial furniture will break up the look of your living space and attraction attention in a good way. Both rustic and modern in style, the pieces will complement any type of décor and with construction from wood and any color of metal. Incorporate a pair of media towers and you have the perfect place to organize everything from knickknacks to glassware.
Book Shelves
Whether you prefer pieces that are low and long or tall and thin, bookshelves can be versatile enough to fit any space you are trying to fill.
Use a single shelving unit or combine several pieces, that are creatively put together and you can create a wall unit that is a one of a kind piece. Go with furniture pieces that are made out of a majority of metal, a majority of wood, or strategically placed as accents to set the design apart from the ordinary. The units become the perfect place to showplace books and unique bookends, flowers in vases, and photographs of family members and mementos from other cherished memories.
Sofa Tables
Industrial sofa tables can be utilized as a catchall in front of the sofa or chairs in your sitting area and will allow for storing and showing off magazines, candles, and remote controls to the various electronics in the room. Baskets made from wicker, wood, cloth and other decorative materials can hold these things on the surface space as well as floral arrangements, refreshments and anything else you’d like to keep handy in the most relaxing room in your home.
Kitchen Storage
Center islands, baker’s racks and other items with shelving work well in the kitchen to hold small appliances and other items that are used frequently. Commercial furniture offers spaces to hold wine bottles and drawers for utensils, napkins and other items can also be included. Units with wheels allow you to move the pieces around easily. Decorative drawer pulls mean each piece is an original design.
Whether you are looking to store heavier, bulky items or smaller accent pieces Industrial Furniture is the perfect answer. Metal and wood is the perfect marriage of materials for pieces that are aesthetic and functional. The pieces can be purchased from most furniture stores and from online outlets as well. They can also be special ordered from companies that design and build the popular pieces.
