industrial look

Exposed pipes style

A design aesthetic characterized by exposed structural elements, raw materials, and utilitarian features typically found in factories and warehouses.

The industrial look favors visible ductwork, brick walls, metal fixtures, concrete floors, and reclaimed wood: The loft conversion kept its industrial look with exposed beams and original brick.

Popular in restaurants, apartments, and offices seeking an urban, unfinished feel.
