1. EXPOSED BRICK WALLS
The exposed brick in interiors fits with any decorative proposal; it goes great for this type of modern kitchens, and ideal in both large kitchens and small kitchens.

The kitchen can also be used to visually delimit spaces in industrial style houses in which the kitchen is open to the living room.
But there are more elements in which metal can play an important role in the decoration of an industrial kitchen,for example, the windows.

Black and gray tones -two chromatic ranges that are a hit in kitchen design- are the most suitable for kitchens with industrial decoration.
