Art and Industrial Design: A Perfect Match
The industrial style, born from the recovery of old factories and lofts in New York, is distinguished by the use of raw materials, neutral colors and a minimal but characterful aesthetic. Metal, aged wood and concrete combine to create welcoming environments with a strong visual impact.
To enhance this style, art plays a fundamental role. Materico's 3D artistic reproductions offer unique textures and depths, perfect for emphasizing the industrial mood and giving a touch of originality to the walls of your home.
Which works to choose for industrial furniture?
If you have chosen the industrial style for your living space, choosing the right paintings is essential to complete the atmosphere. Here are some categories of works that go perfectly with this design.
1. Urban and metropolitan art
Images inspired by the city and urban life fit perfectly into industrial environments. Works that depict skylines, metropolitan views or modern architectural details enhance the contemporary spirit of the industrial style.
- Material Suggestion: Paintings with urban landscapes, such as glimpses of New York or Paris, reinterpreted in an artistic way with 3D textures.
2. Black and white works for a minimalist touch
Industrial decor is all about neutral palettes and sharp color contrasts. Choosing black and white artwork, such as expressive portraits or abstract images, helps maintain stylistic coherence without weighing down the space.
- Material Suggestion: Van Gogh's " Self-Portrait with Brown Jacket" or monochromatic reinterpretations of classical masterpieces.
3. Abstract art for a modern touch
Abstract works fit perfectly into industrial interiors, thanks to their ability to emphasize the materiality of spaces. An abstract painting with metallic elements, geometric patterns or bold brush strokes can become the focal point of a room.
- Material Suggestion: Modern creations with 3D textures that play with reliefs and chromatic overlays.
4. References to the industrial revolution and mechanical art
Art that recalls gears, metal structures and mechanically inspired compositions is ideal for emphasizing the industrial essence of the furniture.
- Material Suggestion: Works that reinterpret futuristic dynamism or details of industrial machinery with a 3D effect.
5. Material landscapes for a natural touch
To balance the coldness of metal and concrete, you can choose landscapes with natural elements reinterpreted in an artistic way. The works with 3D reliefs add depth and warmth to the space.
- Material Suggestion: Van Gogh's Wheat Field with Cypresses or Hokusai's The Wave , perfect for contrasting the rough surfaces of the industrial style.
How to position paintings to enhance the industrial style?
Art is not only a matter of choice, but also of arrangement. Here are some suggestions on how to display Materico paintings in your industrial environment.
1. Above the sofa for a strong visual impact
If you have a loft or a living room with large open spaces, placing a large painting above the sofa becomes a striking solution. Choose works in contrasting colors to stand out against exposed brick or concrete walls.
2. Gallery wall on a main wall
Combining multiple paintings of different sizes creates a very dynamic gallery effect. Alternate monochrome prints with textured works for a sophisticated result.
3. On a brick wall to emphasize the contrast
Exposed brick is a key feature of industrial style. Adding a 3D relief painting over this surface emphasizes depth and adds character to the room.
4. In environments such as lofts and open spaces
If your space is large and open, you can use large paintings to delimit the different functional areas of the house, such as the dining area or the relaxation area.
Conclusion
Art is an essential element to complete industrial decor. With Materico paintings, you can add a touch of personality and style to your spaces, using the 3D effect to create depth and movement on the walls.
