This apartment living features several industrial elements, from the exposed brick wall to the wood beams. The now out-of-use stone fireplace still serves as the perfect vignette for displaying indoor plants and hanging a flat screen TV above. Wall-mounted shelving units let the brick shine through and don't sacrifice any extra floor space.

This apartment living room mixes creams, warm woods and matte blacks for a sophisticated neutral palette. A black leather Midcentury modern lounge chair contrasts with a light taupe area rug.

This open-layout apartment features exposed brick walls and wood beams in the ceiling. The sleek, modern pendant lighting above the dining table contrasts with the otherwise brown wood throughout.

This apartment kitchen features grounding earth tones, from the exposed wood beams to the deep terra cotta clay-colored cabinets. The bright, white subway tile backsplash and white walls keep the room balanced and airy.
