The other week me and the kiddo spent half term travelling across the UK, catching up with old Friends and new, giving kisses to new arrivals *ovaries shhh* and stopping in on the in-laws before heading back to Bristol to end our whistle stop tour. I love these little adventures with F, his eyes wide with curiosity and little hand in mine. In the midst of our busy schedule we took a little lunch date, just me and him, and headed to Byron in Leeds for a proper burger and some industrial interior inspiration.
F requested a 'proper burger' amongst the white tiles, crumbling feature brick walls and large pendant lighting, a concept envisaged by interior designer Clare Nash. I marvelled over my cute date *swoon* and his colouring skills while hanging out in the slick industrial designed interior.
I always love checking out restaurant and cafe interiors and thinking how I could create these looks at home, so I thought I'd pull together a little industrial style wish list of some pieces that have recently caught my eye. I could totally imagine these pieces working perfectly in an open plan kitchen/dining room with sliding doors onto a cool outdoor space, ready for friends to socialise. 
1. High Five Bookshelf | 2. Mini Pendant Light | 3. Customisable Ceramic Light Box | 4. Oak and Metal stool | 5. Industrial Trolix Repro Chair | 6. Uashmama Washable Paper Bag | 7. Copper Wire Baskets
Do you love industrial style? I'd love to know if you've been inspired by eating out before?
I do love this industrial look. The light box is super cool I really want one in my kitchen now! Super design inspiration. Byron is a great burger joint too, been there once and super burgers.
ReplyDeleteThe light box is ace isn't it! You could have so much fun changing the words. x
DeleteByron is awesome! I love the style of it too. Your picks are great - I'd like to get a letter lamp and the wire baskets are cute for storage x
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it took me so long to get down to Byron! Lunch was great. x
DeleteGosh it's all gorgeous! I'm such an interior design nerd, I spent most of my early teens playing The Sims and designing houses! Food looks yummy too, might have to pay a visit when i'm around next! x
ReplyDeleteHaha yes I played at sims too! so much fun. Definitely pop in when you get the chance x
DeleteOh Byron, my burger dreams - we are yet to get one here in NI - now I'm hungry! I also love that industrial look - really stripped back feel - Byron nail that look eh?!
ReplyDeletegood excuse to pop over ;) Industrial looks is very now and I'm loving it x
DeleteI love the interior- looks so "cool." Burger looks pretty awesome too ;)
ReplyDeleteYep we were definitely a fan x
DeleteThat's so lovely the two of you had a little date. I love his jumper. I love your picks, the chair especially x
ReplyDeleteHonestly mini dates with this one is the best as we always have the most fun chats. The chair is amazing isnt it! x
DeleteSuch a great interiors look. And I LOVE a Byron!! You're right - your date was a cutie!
ReplyDeleteYep he sure is ;) So much fun hanging out with the boy. x
DeleteI have always adored Byron Burger. Mr H and I used to go on dates there all the time, when we were courting. Ha ha! I love the interiors of the restaurants. They are so cool and just fit the vibe there perfectly. Also, they make the most amazing courgette fries and oreo milkshakes. Which I am now craving. Darn it! And I love F's jumper - how smart does he look?! Gorgeous. Hugs Lucy xxxx
ReplyDeleteThe courgette fries WERE amazing! So so good, but I haven't tries the oreo cookie milkshake, next time for sure. x
DeleteI definitely do! But have never been to Byron before... Must rectify that!
ReplyDeleteI love the light box I really want one have seen so many people with them & think they look great xx
ReplyDeleteThis is right up my street! Love the whole look. I've never been to Byron but would love to. Need one to open nearer me and I'll be first in the queue.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever been to Monmouth Coffee in Borough Market? I am in love with their lampshades and the way they mix industrial features with old wooden butcher block style tables.
ReplyDeleteI remember you telling me about the great fun you guys had on your little date. so cute and that place looks lovely! x
ReplyDeleteI love the industrial look too! I've got similar tiles in the bathroom & found an awesome industrial mirror to go with them, but waaaay over my (annoying) budget!
ReplyDeleteI love the industrial look and love the pieces you have selected. Especially the shelves :-)
ReplyDeleteOh so lovely. I love a bit of industrial styling mixed with other styles. My house is one big mix of everything from shabby chic rooms to modern industrial rooms. Love your choices.
ReplyDeleteNice!
ReplyDeleteI recently went back to one of my favourite restaurants and they'd covered up the once exposed pipes and ceiling 'workings', i was so disappointed, I love the industrial look.
