A complete guide to industrial bedroom furniture

By Picture Perfect HomePublished 6 months ago 4 min read

Industrial furniture isn’t limited to the downstairs of our homes; it has also become a stylish design introduced into our bedrooms. As industrial beds featuring black metal frames or solid timber headboards have become a stylish addition to our bedrooms, favoured for their durability and affordability, people are now looking for additional items to complement this rugged design. Industrial Bedside Cabinets And Bedside Tables provide you with an easy way to achieve this. Not only do they offer stylish framing for your bed, but in many cases, they also provide storage and display options in the form of drawers, cabinets, and open shelves. This allows you to keep your belongings shut away, neat, whilst still being close to hand. There are a large number of designs to choose from, ranging from retro-inspired styles featuring curved edges and splayed legs to locker-style designs that include label compartment handles and printed text markings. For a modern take on industrial bedside cabinets, there are also simple wooden designs that sit on a black metal frame, adding a warm and natural feel to the room without being too harsh or rustic.

In addition to bedside tables, Industrial Chests of Drawers are a stylish and complementary item that can be introduced into the room to achieve a cohesive look. They provide ample storage, often offering a variety of drawer sizes, ranging from two to three smaller ones at the top to full-length, longer ones at the bottom. Chests of drawers are available in many designs, from long, sleek drawers that also provide a surface area with their lower height, allowing you to place a lamp or accessories on top. There are tall boy drawer options that stack up relatively high and provide you with multiple drawers without occupying too much floor space. This is perfect for more compact bedrooms where storage is a premium. There are also apothecary-style drawers that deliver the impression of multiple small square-sized drawers with individual handles; however, in many cases, these are faux drawer fronts, and the actual drawer space is full width. These drawers are often constructed from a simple black metal frame and feature solid wood drawers that can display a variety of tones and colours, adding a natural, earthy feel to the room.

For larger bedrooms, consider introducing extra furniture into the room like Industrial Benches, Footstools and Ottomans. These valuable items not only add a touch of grandeur to the room as they elongate your bed, but they also provide you with a location to sit and get dressed. Many industrial ottomans take the form of a traditional chest that can open up to provide you with proper storage for cushions, blankets and bedding. The top of the chest can be upholstered in faux leather or linen-style fabrics, or it could be excellent. They will often feature metal corner braces or simple black metal frames, creating a minimal yet architectural design. If storage is not a requirement, then a long bench footstool with an open-framed base is the perfect option, as its light and airy aesthetic adds interest and charm to the bottom of your bed. These benches can be constructed out of solid wood and feature a light-washed weathered design to create a rustic boho feel. Alternatively, it could take the form of a simple black angular frame with an upholstered top with deep button detail, creating a soft yet simple design.

In today’s homes, we ask much more from each room than we have ever done previously. We seek additional use out of rooms, making each location multifunctional as we squeeze function out of every last inch of the room. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see Industrial Desks in our bedrooms as we now have to consider our bedrooms doubling up as workspaces, as more people are choosing the option to work from home. Therefore, industrial desks provide us with a stylish solution that won’t look out of place in a sleek, modern, industrial-style bedroom. The beauty of industrial furniture is that it is often uncomplicated and straightforward, as it’s constructed from simple black metal frameworks and features a natural wooden top. The desks can usually offer storage, whether that’s drawers or cabinet storage, as it allows you to shut away stationery and documents, which helps you to keep your workspace clear and clutter-free. When placed in the bedroom, these simple structures can also double up as a vanity unit, as you can easily put a freestanding mirror on top to provide you with a stylish place to get ready in the morning.

In coordination with the desk, Industrial Office Chairs and Desk Chairs provide you with the perfect finishing touch. These unique office chairs show you that function can still be stylish, as there are a variety of designs to choose from. Whether you require a standard star base with casters or a simpler metal slay style base, there are a variety of designs and styles to choose from. Although they are sleek and striking in appearance, this doesn’t mean that they compromise on comfort, as many desk chairs offer a cushioned and plush upholstered chair. They will often feature industrial design details like ribbed back designs or diamond stitching detail, all hinting at an edgy industrial detail. There are a number of fabric options, from tan faux leather to black and grey antique-aged faux leather options. It’s a perfect option to complement any desk or vanity area whilst still providing a solution that elevates your bedroom as it creates a harmonised design.
