An industrial living room works best when leather, chrome and wood are mixed in clear proportions rather than matched too closely. Use leather for warmth, chrome for light and edge, and wood for visual weight, then repeat each finish at least twice so the room looks intentional instead of assembled piece by piece.
The simplest route is to start with one lounge chair in aniline leather, add one black or dark wood tone, and keep metal details polished rather than bulky. In this store, that usually means choosing from Eames Lounge Chairs, then supporting the chair with dining or occasional seating from Dining Chairs, and, if needed, a work corner from Eames Office Chairs.
How to build an industrial living room without making it feel cold
The mistake most people make is using the idea of “industrial” to justify too much black metal and too little texture. Leather and wood are what stop the scheme feeling hard. Chrome should frame the room, not dominate it.
A useful rule is 50/30/20. Let wood cover about half of the visible statement surfaces, leather about a third, and chrome the remaining fifth. That does not need measuring; it simply means one substantial wood-and-leather chair can carry the room, while chrome appears on the chair base, table legs or a smaller accent.
For a classic anchor, the Classic Charles Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica Brown Leather Walnut Wood is €868 and measures 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H). Brown leather with walnut gives you the easiest industrial mix because both materials already have depth before you add any metal elsewhere.
If you want a stronger contrast, the Classic Charles Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica Black Leather – Ebony Ash Wood Black is €809 and measures 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H). This is better when the room already has lighter flooring, pale walls or exposed brick, because the chair itself is visually denser.
For a softer industrial palette, tan leather with chrome is often more useful than black. The Charles Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica – Tan Brown – Walnut Wood – Chrome Base is €869, 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H), and the Charles Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica – Tan Brown – Rose Wood – Chrome Base is also €869, 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H). Those combinations let chrome read clearly without making the room stark.
The decisive criteria before you choose pieces
1. Start with the leather tone. Brown, tan and camel are usually the safest choices because they bridge rough finishes such as concrete, brick and dark timber. If you prefer black, make sure there is enough pale material elsewhere to stop the room compressing visually.
2. Decide whether chrome should be visible. In an industrial scheme, exposed chrome can be either a highlight or a distraction. If you want the base to play a visible role, choose a chrome-base lounge chair. If you want the leather and wood to lead, choose a darker base treatment.
3. Check the room size against the actual dimensions. Many lounge chair and ottoman sets here are 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H), while tall versions are 84 x 85 x 89 cm (W x L x H). That extra height changes how the chair reads against shelving, windows and artwork.
4. Know the upholstery type. Every lounge chair and ottoman version in this range—standard, premium waxy, tall/XL, chair only and ottoman only—uses 100% aniline leather on every part. Dining chair options such as the Set of Two Eames DSW Chairs Replica PU Leather Black at €90, 47 x 53 x 83 cm (W x L x H), and the Set of Four Eames DSW Chairs Replica PU Leather Black at €150, 47 x 53 x 83 cm (W x L x H), are PU leather, which is useful if you want a lower-cost secondary seat in the same room.
5. Use one statement chair, not several competing ones. An industrial space usually looks more resolved when one piece does the heavy lifting. If you want guidance on that, see Statement Chair: How to Anchor a Room and How to Choose the Right Swivel Leather Armchair.

For this question, the most relevant ranges are lounge chairs, office chairs and dining chairs. A practical route is one lounge chair as the main seat, then one simpler side chair or office chair if the living room also doubles as a reading or work zone.
If you want a room with more patina and less contrast, the Premium Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica Waxy Camel Polished Leather Walnut Wood is €999, 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H).

For colour used carefully, the Premium Eames Lounge Chair And Ottoman Replica Waxy Dark Green Polished Leather Rose Wood is €999, 87 x 85 x 84 cm (W x L x H); deep green can work with blackened steel, walnut and aged leather tones if the rest of the room stays quiet.

Orders are dispatched within 1–2 working days of confirmation and delivered by DPD, fully tracked. Delivery typically arrives within 6–9 working days door to door, and tracking details are emailed as soon as the order is dispatched. The shop publishes one delivery window for all categories, and weekend delivery is not part of the standard service.
Most single-product orders ship in one package, while larger items may arrive in several boxes. A lounge chair and ottoman set typically ships in two packages. Multi-item orders may be split across deliveries but are dispatched together. Each piece is inspected before boxing, and it is worth keeping the original packaging during the 14-day return window because returns must be repacked in it.
Returns can be requested within 14 days from delivery if the item is unused and in its original packaging, and nothing may be sent back without return authorisation from support@decomica.com. For a change of mind, the refund is made minus a €40 return fee that covers DPD collection. If an item arrives faulty, damaged in transit or wrong, the return is free: DPD collects it and the shop sends a replacement or a full refund if reported within 14 days with photos. Every piece also carries a 2-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Common mistakes when mixing leather, chrome and wood
Using too many wood tones. In this look, one wood species should lead. Walnut and rose wood both work, but using several unrelated tones can dilute the industrial effect. If you start with walnut, keep later additions close in depth rather than jumping between pale oak, red timber and black stain.
Choosing black leather in a dark room without enough contrast. Black leather and dark wood can look right, but they need space around them. If the room has little daylight, tan, camel or brown are easier choices. For more on lighter seating, see Cream Office Chair: When a Light Leather Chair Works.
Adding chrome everywhere. One chrome chair base plus a few hardware details is usually enough. If table legs, shelving, lighting and seating all use the same bright finish, the room can lose depth.
Ignoring maintenance. Lounge chairs here use 100% aniline leather on every part, so care matters. Wipe leather with a dry or barely damp cloth, never with abrasive or solvent cleaners, and keep it out of direct sun, especially white leather. For white upholstery, see How to Clean White Leather Chairs Safely at Home. For green leather specifically, see How to Style a Green Leather Armchair at Home.
Treating every chair as a feature chair. Secondary seating should be quieter than the main lounge chair. That is where lower-cost PU leather dining chairs can help: they support the palette without competing with the main piece.
Frequently asked questions
Is brown or black leather better for this look?
Brown is usually easier because it adds warmth to chrome and darker wood, especially in rooms with concrete, brick or metal shelving. Black works well when the room has good light and enough pale surfaces to keep contrast visible. If you want the safest starting point, brown, tan or camel generally blend more easily with industrial materials.
Can I mix walnut and chrome in the same seating piece?
Yes. In fact, that combination often gives the clearest balance between warmth and edge. A model such as the tan brown walnut wood chrome-base lounge chair puts all three key materials—leather, chrome and wood—into one main piece, which makes the rest of the room easier to finish.
Are the lounge chairs real leather?
Yes. The lounge chair and ottoman in every version listed here—standard, premium waxy, tall/XL, chair only and ottoman only—are upholstered in 100% aniline leather on every part. That is different from some office chair models, where genuine leather is used on the seat and front of the backrest, with matching leather on the underside and outer back.
How hard is assembly?
Dining chairs need minor assembly, typically four screws per chair, with an Allen key supplied and instructions in the box. Larger lounge chair sets usually arrive in two packages, and multi-item orders may be split across deliveries but are dispatched together.
What if the chair arrives damaged or is not right for the room?
If an item arrives faulty, damaged in transit or wrong, report it within 14 days with photos and DPD will collect it from your door free of charge; the shop will arrange a replacement or a full refund. If you simply change your mind, you still have 14 days from delivery to request a return, but the refund is made minus a €40 return fee. In both cases, keep the original packaging and request return authorisation from support@decomica.com before sending anything back.
