Industrial

I love mixing a bit of industrial into spaces, it's a great way to mix another material which will always help to perk up a boring room. 

Kitchens that Inspire

South of France Farm House

A nifty farm house in the south of France showcases industrial materials and lots of old wood.  I'm really getting into corrugated tin right now, especially when it's patinated like this wall treatment. The juxtaposition of industrial and the wood in this space is fantastic.  Simply old world with a spin! 

The Window to my Soul

Natural light makes my soul happy!  

An Avant-Garde Collector

Alketas Pazis rescues and collects objects, lighting, and furniture from the 1900's to 1950's.  He reclaims industrial furnishings and wares and rents them to commercial and movie studios in Greece.  While Pazis' showroom which is called Temporary Showroom is outfitted with the most obscure mid century pieces, his residence which is attached to his business is equally as charming, eclectic and cleverly collected.  This is Avant-Garde at its best!
