I was browsing the Fantastic Furniture website recently. Working on a guest bedroom for a client. So the pieces didn’t need to be expensive. Just good value. I rate Fantastic Furniture for furniture for particular spaces for a particular budget. I like their Industrial style beds and bed frames. Here’s how to choose an Industrial bed for your apartment.
Materials of an Industrial bed
Industrial style has a distinct look based on certain materials. Key materials for an Industrial aesthetic include wood and glass. Brick and concrete. Copper and chrome like in exposed piping.
Essentially the key materials for an Industrial style bedroom are materials used in industrial environment like factories and warehouses.
The materials are robust and sometimes distressed due to heavy industrial usage. I also think that Fantastic Furniture has a couple of interesting and budget Industrial style beds.
First bed I like at just over $500 is the Bridge Queen Bed. It ticks the boxes in terms of materials with wood look MDF and a metal base.
I think the line on the metal base is particularly interesting and a good point of difference.
The next Industrial style bed I like from Fantastic Furniture is the Santa Fe bed at just under $300. It has the same materiality as the Bridge Queen Bed above. Those materials being timber and metal.
However, the line is different. It’s less boxy and I like the screws in the bedhead. These amplify the Industrial feel of this piece. The piping style of the bed base is also an attractive feature of this Industrial style bed.
Colours, textures and patterns
In a previous post I wrote about the key elements to achieving a hotel look in your apartment. One of these elements includes a great mattress.
While a solid bed base or bed frame is important. Spending less on this piece and more on the mattress is a choice for a good night’s sleep.
To cement the Industrial style in your apartment bedroom other elements to include are colour, texture, and pattern.
Colours such as black, grey, white, and blue. Textures such as wool, cowhide or jute if you want a rug. Patterns such as stripes and bold geometric also work for an Industrial aesthetic.
Knowing your style goal and colour scheme are key to selecting the right pieces for your apartment furniture.
You can check out our affordable curated furniture sets to select additional pieces. These can complete your Industrial style bedroom, like a bedside table and bedside table lamps.
The key to furnishing your apartment is good quality pieces, not necessarily expensive pieces.
To choose an Industrial bed for your apartment, focus on materials. Then colour, pattern and texture.
