Vintage is a nicer word for old and used.
Industrial is a nicer word for old and rusty… sometimes.
Mix these with the other accoutrements of modern living and you get Eclectic.
I wouldn’t describe homes with a style that is more vintage or industrial as lovely. Simply because lovely things are light, bright and clean to me.
That is not to say I do not admire homes with an industrial or vintage vibe, throbbing with an appreciation of reclaimed items of some historicity. It’s just that when not done well, it is easy to come across as tacky, gloomy, dusty and maybe a tad grimy. But that’s just me and my OCD penchant for cleanliness and comfort :P
Having said all this, here is an Industrial Loft house with impact. Lots and lots of details to entrance the eyes.
What I liked best though are the custom bi-fold sliding doors that frame an almost picture perfect bedroom (would be picture perfect without that plastic storage box sitting in the corner there).
You can see the rest of the house on Apartment Therapy.
