Industrial style, cold apartment or a cosy corner?

The industrial style of each of us seems to be something different. For some, it is primarily cold walls and ubiquitous disorder, for others, the warmth of natural wood.

It is worth spending some time on industrial style. Mainly because it is worth to draw inspiration from it. Although this style is mainly concrete, steel, glass and wood, you can arrange warm, even family rooms according to its guidelines. In addition, without spending a fortune for this purpose.

Most of us associate this style mainly with factories and there is nothing strange about it. Indrustrial is a style originating from the United States, where factories are born and die in the course of a mission, and sometimes a week. So there was a need to do something about these factories. The simplest solution turned out to be to adapt them to the living conditions, but the most important was, as usual, the cost - to make such a house inexpensive, it was simply not finished in the normal way, leaving the walls, ceilings and sometimes even the floors in a raw state. Thanks to this, the whole apartment gains an unusual climate.

When it comes to the problems and challenges associated with living in such buildings, one of the biggest challenges is to adapt them. A big problem here is, above all, the tightness of the rooms, the way they are heated, as well as meeting all sanitary requirements, such as connecting the running water. Once we have dealt with these problems, we have water, some preliminary plan of living, we can get down to designing.

Unfortunately, the design of such rooms is already different. First of all, our domestic factories look a little different from foreign ones, where the weather is a little more gracious. First of all, our factories do not have such large windows, which are a symbol of this style for the northern United States. Secondly, there are relatively few factories in our country. Currently, production is mainly in the Far East, which means that we simply don't have such places, and those that are usually in incredible ruin so quickly that before anyone wants to adapt them, the cost of such an investment is too great.

Secondly, this style is not for everyone. The truth is that a lot of people who were fascinated by it at first go away, why? They forget he's cold. Walls, flooring, even big windows make it rather difficult to build a cozy atmosphere. In addition, a big problem in this case is also the price to be paid for heating such a large room, which sometimes is just terribly high and not everyone agrees to it.
