Leave room around the chair to enter and turn. Keep the lamp base clear of the walking route and use the maker’s bulb guidance. Mount the ledges on an appropriate wall with the recommended spacing and load limits.
How do you build an industrial reading corner against a concrete-toned wall?
Use a warm cognac seat, an overhead arc light and a limited display of records. A reading seat works harder when it also reflects what you love to return to. Here the chair sits beside the window, the lamp reaches over it, and the record wall gives the corner a reason to feel like yours.
Cognac upholstery warms the cool concrete-toned backdrop. The dark lamp frame echoes the wall ledges’ clean lines, while the sleeves add color that can change without buying new furniture.
Set it up in your room
Leave room around the chair to enter and turn. Keep the lamp base clear of the walking route and use the maker’s bulb guidance. Mount the ledges on an appropriate wall with the recommended spacing and load limits.
Check the fit before you buy
Check chair footprint and swivel clearance, lamp height and outlet access, and ledge width against the records you intend to display. The wall finish and side table are contextual styling.
