Steampunk Interior Design Style

[@djmond3497]

I love the steampunk style! I teach English Language Arts in a middle school and I have decorated my entire classroom in this style. Everyone says that I have the nicest classroom in the building.

[@cerwelt]

Love Steampunk. It’s H. G. Wells meets Dr. Who. It’s Sci-fi meets Alice in Wonderland. Time travel plus the Industrial revolution. Back to the future at its finest. It’s a writer/reader’s dream decor.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

YES!

[@owl418]

Would you recommend any particular steampunk novel? I'd love to get into the genre but I'm not sure where to start, and you seem like you might have some good recommendations

I’m a newly steampunk fan after realizing that I’ve always loved steampunk before knowing what steampunk was exactly

[@sharonkaysnowton]

I am an adult Barbie doll collector. I am currently building a new doll house- The outside will be Doug Aitken "mirrored" house. The inside will be Steampunk!!! You have given me sooo many ideas to put in this house for my Alice in Wonderland Barbie and Johnny Depp Mad Hatter. Thanks for all the ideas.

[@HeronCoyote1234]

I’m a minimalist but found many of these photos comforting, not stressful at all. I also love Art Nouveau.

[@mandy833]

I would describe Steampunk as "Futuristic Vintage," because there is an interesting pairing of old world style with modern technology and design

[@InteriorDesignHub]

Oooo I love that!!!

[@helenaszmuness6783]

You explained the style really well. Not everybody's cup of tea, but how refreshing and fun.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

So fun :). I think even if it isn't someones style a lot of people could enjoy it and appreciate it. Thank you for watching

[@eileenirvin3010]

I love the steam punk style....I've always decorated that way, but didn't realize what it was called. People ask me all the time what my style is, and never could pinpoint it. Thx so much for the clarity. Love your Chanel!

[@JohnSmith-hr2pb]

The best description I've read for Steampunk is "if electricity didn't catch on and coal/steam continued to power the world". Think of modern times and technology w/o electricity, but still computers and such but all powered by steam and coal. Makes a lot of sense to me!

[@battlegroundproductions949]

loved how you highlighted the old and new of steampunk

[@FemaleVillageElder]

Steampunk is awesome!

[@InteriorDesignHub]

such a fun style!!

[@ivanlewellen1769]

I'm a Gearhead, and I love mechanical things. Also an amateur history buff. I think this is why I'm drawn to the Steampunk aesthetic.

[@FrilledMayfly_AmberlyFerrule]

Steampunk is my bread and butter. I see it as the depictions of the future the victorian era had, with still very victorian styles but with strange new technology and a hope for the future. It's kinda the opposite of modern futuristic movies and ideas where technology just gets more and more streamlined. Steampunk is bulky, extravagant, and utterly insane and can take the form of mad scientists and horrible giant machinery, or it can be more of a backdrop in a more victorian tale. Seeing folks who never heard of steampunk before is so interesting to me since right when i first saw it I connected with it. It had everything I wanted out of technology and aesthetics

[@rats2themoon]

SO me too!!! Your comment is 💯

[@jerishull1860]

Yay!!! I'm kind of on my own (expect with viewers of this video), but I don't care. I love it. I'm decorating my office with it... slowly but surely bringing in the pieces.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

Love it!!

[@tamieckert4548]

When a while back,I went to writing class,so it was already a theme look for some students stories.Personally I’ve always been a time traveler, but do diy challenges,to come up with projects,some out of recycling and the taste I meld together is some goth,some bohemian, And I do love some steampunk tastes,leaning more to Victorian,some jewel tones and some vibrancy and definitely some metallics mainly gold,Pearly colors.a full collage of colors,patterns.Find it very therapeutic,to go to my wanderlust.🥰❤️Thanks for your depictions of styles,also for your videos!🎉

[@InteriorDesignHub]

Thank you so much for sharing and the kind words!

[@ahiza1]

omg this style is amazing.

[@eileencarroll6418]

Fun! I never thought of this as a style either. Rather than identifying with a fixed point in time, i.e., Victorian period, my reaction leaned more toward industrialization and the juxtaposition of before and after a variety of technological and industrial innovations. For example you could contrast a kerosene lamp with an Edison bulb and color-adjusted LED back-lighting. As a recovering Dr. Who addict, I appreciate the saturated contrast of images and ideas. Not so much a glimpse of the past, but a journey out of any specific time with a curio of technological souvenirs. I like the characteristics of saturation, exaggeration and contrast to develop the feel of humor and entertainment. I can even see a real use for such a fantasy environment in a restaurant or lounge. To a more subtle degree, I can see a nod to steam punk in a modern home. I absolutely loved the soft seating picture showing tufting on all sides of the furniture. I love this type of exaggeration. I don't know if my reaction is what the designer intended, but I love it. Well done, you, for exploring this slant on steam punk and giving us something new to think about.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

What a thoughtful words on this style. I really like your take on it! So glad you enjoyed it and yes I could very much see this in a restaurant, cafe or speak easy type bar! Very fun and playful style :) Thank you!

[@stephenlangsl67]

I just thought of something. Steampunk would be a very good idea for a themed Cafe. I think that a chain of Steampunk Cafe's could end up being very popular in several Countries.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

When I was researching I found one in South Africa that was super interesting and well done! I feel like Steampunk Cafe and/or breweries would be very neat!!

[@debrawalters9746]

[@kimgoranson9954]

I’m doing my version of this style in my art studio. It is so fun! I do paper art & have a ton of books from 1800’s & antique pieces in studio already. It will be fun to use what I have and create a more elevated space!

[@InteriorDesignHub]

Sounds so fun!!

[@fraurosenthal2958]

I have some very subtle hints of steampunk in my home but love it because it has this sense of adventure and explorerism.

[@reillystsb]

If a room is done right. In steampunk, it can take you places everywhere. You look is like a new adventure. Even the sergeant pepper's album cover by The Beatles is steampunk.

[@LL-vd3qi]

Steampunk is my absolute fav. I fell in love with this style many years ago. Dark, cave-like, metal & lace, rusty pipes & soft leather, old meets new. It has a strong Scorpio vibe.

[@22tew93]

always love your videos,and I love the steampunk. I cannot wait to see the victorian video.

Good job on this. Bringing in the definition of Victorian, Gothic and industrial and brick is so on the money.

Hello💗.When you say moody type, it means exibition of artistry or like an art encyclopedia,art machine,combination of vintage and victorian era whatever you call it as long as fashion and human imagination electrifies the design.

I love this dark moody look and I have to say the books hanging off the wall are incredible I’ve never seen it done before but as soon as I saw it I could just feel my heart glowing I was like that is the most amazing thing I’ve seen what would also work is believe it or not a lot of plants It’s almost like the inventors theme more so than the scientific think may be Nikola Tesla he just loved creating so it’s really a creators type atmosphere and a dark moon is those people don’t necessarily fit in with the rest of society they’re definitely visionary and then also I just kind of sound like an area that might’ve been dedicated to apothecary

[@InteriorDesignHub]

I am so glad that you enjoyed it! It really is a fun style I love books so this one is special to me as well! 😊

[@_shundo_1407]

I live for this style. One of my favorites is my annual steam punk renaissance hat I’ve been building upon over the yrs. No plastic must curate the real gears and clock innards which is actually difficult lol also involves power tools to cut the excess etc but its a staple in my industrial older European and unique design. Great bc doubles as lamp which glass skeleton head it sits upon which is placed in as you said layers with metal and wood risers and took sense lamp and just stuck bulb under and amazing 🤩 ppl love it. Honestly love steampunk but also never thought of it as defined design sense but feeling this for sure. One thing is you have to be careful to not appear desperate or cheap lol and definitely must own this unique home and honestly if had ability yeah my home would definitely be the maximalist with the victorian gothic revival metal accents surrounding my world of a kind items Love this and yeah I feel it hard esp bc technically industrial design by its design order is a more minimalist with clean lines which is to exemplify certain elements of its aesthetic but girl I want to maximize my life lol. ❤ thanks for great video and please tell me more lol was great and see a market here lol the moody Victorian farmhouse moves into its new industrial age Warehouse design lacking the modern refined orders of clean lines and neutral colors lol. Yeah makes me moody to think that black walks exited not from design choices yet was just the foul air and encompassing smog from the layered progresses of the enlightened souls of industry with their rich amber glows of burning light and mechanics of its own design for the world’s future! Lol yeah story is great. 😊

[@blyndeaf8503]

I don’t know if I could commit to having it in the living room or kitchen, but DEFINITELY a game room and maybe a dining area. I just think the dark colors would be depressing after a while so I wouldn’t want a living space to look like that. To me, it’s a little unwelcoming, but definitely cool and mysterious.

[@Djynni]

Steampunk and Dark Academia go together.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

They totally do!!

[@shelzby100]

Love this style!

[@islandseeker1260]

Steampunk is also about functionality: imagining modern technology powered by steam, clock springs and gear mechanisms. There's some great examples of this in the tech world with amazing (and fully functional) Steampunk-themed computers, music and home entertainment systems people have created and built. The genre is also heavily influenced by a Jules Verne vibe, who himself was imagining a futuristic advanced world powered by the common propulsion methods of his day -- including some very fanciful flying machines, and of course submarines and other aquatic vehicles. One of my favourite descriptions of Steampunk is "What the past would have looked like if the future had happened sooner." Indeed, the Steampunk aesthetic can be applied to nearly anything and everything -- check out some of the Star Wars Steampunk stuff! I love everything about the Steampunk genre, and have been gradually redecorating my entire house over the past 15 years or so as finances and time permit. I also like that the aesthetic has remained just below the surface of most people's radar, and never really exploded into the mainstream... which makes it even more appealing for those of us who become immersed in this curious and whimsical world!

[@maevaasare9015]

🙌🏾 Great work on this! By far, this is the best representation and walk-through of the style on KZbin so far. (I think this might be one of the first videos I actually 👍🏾 on KZbin.) Steampunk is where it's at (as a genre as a whole) haha...awesome connection with Alice in Wonderland as well. 😏 I could also see the Art Deco vibes...one of those photos looked like an industrialized Speakeasy! (Kinda reminded me of The Edison in Los Angeles.) You found some amazing imagery and I'm glad you enjoyed researching this style. Some of the decor is out of this world...and still functional! And since you mentioned movies, the production design of Wild Wild West comes to mind...a film that I actually really liked because of the Steampunk influence. I was so excited to see this video haha 😊 so I'm definitely looking forward to the Victorian Era video!

Oooo, i thought I wouldn't like it cuz of the gothic feels I got from the photos you previewed at the beginning of this video, but my oh my! It reminded me of this movie Hugo which I loved cuz of the see-trough mechanical pieces and the total story image.. I love this, but wouldn't incorporate in my bed room cuz of it's gothic and very dark tones, but would love to visit such place not live in it.. Thank you for introducing is to new style.. plz keep these series going.. If you can do videos on african designs and Arabic ones would sooooo much appreciated cuz honestly I like your take and opinion and your personality makes it easy for me to digest info and not feel time.. Thank you for your work and for creating this channel.. Am not usually sm1 who comments on videos but you make me want to.. Thnx.. Amy from Egypt 🥰

[@InteriorDesignHub]

oooo I actually have those 2 on a list I wrote, but I couldn't find a ton of info on them, so I was thinking of doing a video on 5 design styles that you haven't heard about, and then it will be a bit of a simple overview. not because I don't like them, just that there is limited information from my research to deep dive into them :). Love the suggestion. Thank you

[@dteun]

Ahh didnt know my style hade a name. Needed some inspiration have a living room thst we now dont use because of the cold months and hard to heat up .bit summer is on the way and investing in second hand persian carpets the last months to keep warmth in the house.

[@caraboska]

I believe that the term you were looking for was "herbarium", pronounced like "terrarium", except with "herb-" at the beginning instead of "terr-". Apparently, it is up to you whether or not to pronounce the initial h. I personally would be inclined to pronounce it, but either variant is possible. At any rate, the plural is "herbaria". I have a very eclectic taste, so I would not necessarily look to outfit my entire place in steampunk. I adore the exposed brick looks that you are showcasing here. Also: wrought iron, play with textures, perhaps also one of those clocks with the innards exposed as an accent piece. But I've just got too much other stuff to fit in: Gothic, Art Nouveau, Chinese, Japanese, Moroccan, Turkish... to go all-out steampunk.

[@thepenultimateninja5797]

Steampunk can be really good if done correctly, but it just looks ridiculous if done in an amateurish fashion. For example, the clock that you can see at 4:35 just looks stupid, because it's obvious that those gears are just stuck in randomly and don't actually do anything. To me, it has to look like it could feasibly work for it to look right. Maybe it's just the machinist in me, and most people wouldn't notice the absurdity.

[@ScooterIndo]

It's too heavy unless you have a fixation with vampires or living on the Nautilus from 20 thousand leagues under the sea. However that said it could be a great style if incorporated into an industrial design interior. As an image it works but as a livable interior it would fail.

[@InteriorDesignHub]

I think everyone has different tastes and a lot of styles are like fashion. The exact version is dramatic, but you can incorporate touches of it into a space or design for some personality or flair.

[@ScooterIndo]

I think it’s important to add the futuristic element to Steampunk. Also if you are using photos to illustrate examples of a style of decor, using AI generated images isn’t helpful. Much better to stick to actual rooms that have been designed so the looks are achievable.

Too many people believe that putting gears or pipes on things makes it steampunk and that everything is dark brown, burgundy and emerald. In actual steampunk there is a lot of bright turquoise, orange, dusky blues, peaches, beiges, and especially imitation arsenic green. If you want to go with authentic steampunk, which is very much a diy movement, think making functional things opulent and beautiful. It’s also about not functional items like pipes and gears in non-functioning, purely decorative roles.
