The special features of the factory wall shelf
Industrial decoration is made up of different currents. The Factory trend draws its inspiration from the source, in factories and hangars from the 1890s to the 1950s. The factory wall shelf is therefore made of metal and solid wood. Even when it is small in size, it can therefore be quite heavy: a characteristic that must be taken into account when hanging it on the wall!
The factory shelf also has the characteristic of being robust. You can therefore count on it to accessorize the industrial kitchen or to fit out a library in the living room: it will withstand a heavy load perfectly.
Full of character, the factory shelf is enough to give personality to the smallest spaces. You can count on it in the entrance, in the hallway, even in the toilets.
Thanks to its vintage facet, the factory wall shelf is not exclusively reserved for an industrial interior. It can also find its place in a rustic decor.
The 10 factory shelves to shop this season
Alone or associated with the glass mirror, the factory shelves give maximum character to the decor. To choose the perfect model for your interior, consider its location: it is important that your shelf is perfectly proportioned. We therefore reserve large to very large models for interiors with large volumes, and we favor small models in a room of more modest dimensions.
Pier Import’s Melbourne shelving collection is one of the smartest designs out there. It is made up of models of various sizes and formats: you are therefore certain to find the shelf that is perfectly suited to your interior – even when it comes to decorating a delicate space such as a hallway or small industrial entrance. The different models can also be assembled to create a dynamic wall composition: a great alternative to the traditional picture wall.
The Loberon Igraine wall shelf is made up of nine elements that can be combined at your convenience. This model can be installed above a desk or a chest of drawers or sideboard type base unit. You can also install the different elements on two to three walls of the room, in order to create a harmonious decoration. This shelving unit with its typically factory look goes particularly well with professional furniture.
With their atypical round format, Pier Import’s Cyclades shelves are perfect for breaking the often very strict lines of industrial interiors. These small models in recycled wood are precious allies for creating a plant corner in the industrial living room or for greening the entrance or the landing.
The factory furniture is most often massive: one could therefore believe it exclusively reserved for the renovation of an atypical loft-type property. Here is a received idea debunked by Narton, the smart factory wall shelf from Sklum. This small model can be hung high above a piece of furniture or the kitchen worktop, like any other classic model. You can also divert it as an office corner or a bedside table in a small bedroom. Especially since its hanging storage is spacious enough to fit your books.
If you have adopted a large format piece such as the industrial dresser, it may be preferable to orient yourself towards wall shelves with a silhouette as airy as possible. With its 5 compartments, the Areglo metal model from La Redoute is a very good choice because it is as aesthetic as it is functional.
The factory Taylor Island shelf by Loberon is openly inspired by professional furniture. This model combines two tops and a bar that can be accessorized with hooks. It is particularly suitable for water features, since it allows you to hang towels or a dishcloth. It is also a rather smart choice if you want to decorate the toilets in an industrial spirit.
To highlight a large section of wall while optimizing the available surface, bet on Flèxe, the industrial metal wall shelf from Produit Interior Brut. With 100 cm in diameter and 18 cm in depth, this atypical model offers you a nice space to display your decorations or store your belongings.
The Lamo shelf duo from Toilinux impresses with its very authentic character. This stunning tandem in a factory decor is also particularly effective in a rustic decoration. We particularly like it in a cottagecore kitchen.
With the Fir collection, Alinéa offers a nice range of industrial shelves in a rather compact format. Made of pine wood and metal, these shelves of various sizes are attractive for their versatility. Not only do they adapt to almost any room in the house, but they also have a modern character. If they naturally find their place in the industrial interior, they can also add a twist to a more contemporary decor.
If you are looking for a discreet shelf to deposit the keys in the entrance or to install your frames in the living room, fall for Ledge, the metal shelf proposed by House Doctor. Its black version is indeed the ideal model to have a discreet shelf, which matches the factory atmosphere of your interior. Its minimalist design also allows it to work in any decorative atmosphere. A basic to have absolutely on hand, in short!
