Exposed brick, uncovered pipework, metal furnishings, matte worktops and black accessories are combined to achieve a stripped-back, industrial-style kitchen. Whether you opt for the full look or simply introduce one or two elements into your current space, these hints toward an industrial kitchen will emphasise a raw, modern space.

For those of you who are beginning the design process for your industrial-style kitchen,  here are some of our favourite kitchen designs that showcase the industrial trend…

6. From the monochrome tiled floor, free-standing island and metallic appliances, this scheme captures the essence of an authentic, industrial kitchen. The misaligned tiles combined with the added texture from the wallpaper gives the look an increased dimension.

 

7. A key aspect of industrialism is space and openness – the floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceilings really elevate this unique kitchen space. Rugged concrete-looking surfaces perfectly juxtapose elements of wood, with split-level worktops adding depth. Glass cabinetry, copper elements and touches of greenery make the kitchen feel modern and dynamic.
