Taking inspiration from old, defunct factories and rustic surroundings Vintage Industrial, aka Industrial Chic, is one of the hottest trends when it comes to the design world. It is a trend that marks a significant departure from the mainstream, yet is quickly becoming mainstream in itself.

With the digital age apparently encouraging a decline in basic human connections, people seem drawn to the real connection to brands that is expressed through this trend.

A connection to the written word through raw hand lettering showing craftsmanship and skill.
A connection to the past and history through vintage inspired pieces.
A connection to uncomplicated, honest and natural brands.
Or, simply put, a connection to other people.
