Deck Design Ideas: Industrial-Chic Escape
What Defines This Look?
Industrial-chic spaces are defined by a careful mix of materials historically found in urban industrial spaces, balanced with more contemporary design touches. This look:
- Lifts inspiration from factories, railroads, and firehouses.
- Incorporates materials like iron, cement, metal, and glass.
- Typically involves a muted or dark color palette.
- Aligns form with function for a no-nonsense final product with a masculine edge.
What Are the Benefits?
- An Enviable Balance of Raw and Refined: Deck design ideas that fall into the industrial-chic category mix the elegance of chic design with the rugged feel of classic industrial looks — for example, a refined black Contemporary Rail contrasted with multi-tonal capped polymer deck boards. This combination leads to a visually engaging variety of lines and textures, plus the kind of expert craftsmanship that defined manufacturing and transportation centers throughout the 20th century.
- Sustainability-Inviting by Nature: Since industrial-chic styles are all about repurposing materials, they naturally pair well with sustainability-focused deck design ideas. At TimberTech, we’re constantly innovating to increase the amount of recycled material in our products: Our capped polymer decking uses up to 54% recycled material, and our capped composite decking uses up to 80% recycled material. Choosing composite decking from TimberTech thus captures the sustainability at the heart of repurposed lumber — but without the weathering issues that afflict traditional wood.
Set the Stage
To capture the multi-tonal complexity of repurposed wood, select from the TimberTech AZEK® Vintage Collection®, which features infinitely variable wood grain patterns and an intricate, wire-brushed look.
