WHAT IS URBAN?

From steel and stone, to brick, brass, and timber, the Urban style is all about raw, natural materials. Perfect for people who want an edgy, architectural style maintaining connection to the past, this strong style is brought to life through inspiration drawn from the natural environment. Exposed brick and stone walls exude character, while wide, expansive windows and oversized lighting composed of steel, copper, and wrought iron illuminate all the unique details of an Urban style home. It’s a look that’s deliberately unstructured to achieve an imperfect, relaxed ambience. Furniture is a mix of weathered and glossy woods to create a perfect balance of old and new designs. Natural linens, chunky fabrics, throws, and leather perfectly align to this style and when mixed with warm neutrals, create a subtle masculine touch.
