Sonia Essaddi, brand<br />
manager for Flamant<br />
UAE, on achieving the<br />
warm, utilitarian look.<br />
“The industrial style is<br />
inspired by old factories and<br />
characterised by metals and<br />
wood surfaces. Designs are<br />
often influenced by 19thcentury<br />
industry pieces, so<br />
the materials are usually<br />
stained or aged.<br />
“Look for furniture that<br />
offers simple silhouettes and<br />
a weathered character.<br />
Brushed metal, glass,<br />
reclaimed wood and furniture<br />
in neutral colours are great<br />
for creating a rustic look in<br />
your home. Hang some art on<br />
your walls for an artist’s loft<br />
feel and add a solid burst of<br />
colour to maintain balance<br />
and demarcate different<br />
spaces in the home. This nod<br />
to the Industrial Revolution<br />
is a perfect look for any space,<br />
whether modern or classic,<br />
because it offers warmth and<br />
oodles of personality.”<br />
