Seven exposed brick wall decor ideas for your home
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Perhaps that is why exposed brick interiors are called a timeless style, a quirky feature and sometimes even an eyesore. But despite all this, this type of interior design has continued to captivate most homeowners.
Visible brick decor is a work of art in itself. It is perfect for lovers of minimalism. It fits perfectly with Scandinavian interiors, country house interiors, industrial interiors, urban lofts and vintage interiors. In most cases, no additional decoration is required. However, here are our brick wall decorating ideas to make them even more eye-catching.
The naturally exposed brick wall may seem too rustic for some people. A white brick wall is a perfect alternative. It gives the room a softness. In the image below we have used a custom-made multi-purpose TV with an attached desk and bookshelf. The light wood laminate of the furniture provides a light contrasting tone. We mounted the TV on the wall and added two floating shelves for additional storage.
Designer Tip: If you’re on a tight budget, achieve the same look with self-adhesive wall stickers. It’s a great renter-friendly option.
The combination of black brick walls and wooden panels is magical for this house. The color contrast gives the living room an aesthetic appeal. Additionally, the bright yellow floating TV stand with drawers is a great option to hide those messy items that you don’t want in plain sight. If this half-and-half style of exposed brick wall decoration appeals to you, speak to one of our designers.
In the age of accent walls, the exposed brick wall is the quickest way to create one for your home. For this makeshift study/work area in this apartment, we chose red brick wall decoration. Minimal accessories give the place an industrial vibe. A black metal desk and three-layer wall shelves in a similar style complement the other elements. It gives the room a very edgy look. We also placed a modular bookcase with hidden storage. There are four seamless drawers at the bottom to keep items organized and tidy. We also added a potted plant for a much-needed pop of color.
The use of white brick pattern wall tiles is nothing new for bathroom design. But you can play with these decorative brick wall tiles in many ways to create something phenomenal. Get inspired by the bathroom shown in the picture. It is the definition of luxury bathrooms. We used a combination of traditional white wall tiles and decorative crescent tile chips with midnight blue color that gives this bathroom an otherworldly feel. The patterned floor tiles in similar colors complete the overall picture. Try it in your home.
Get inspired by this dark, moody bedroom. Since only part of the exposed brick wall is cemented, the bedroom exudes a mysterious, raw atmosphere. This is mainly due to the dark wooden four-poster bed. If you want to incorporate this style, consider decorating it with a few different sized picture frames, decorative string lights, and small metal furniture. You can also replace shiny ceramic planters with concrete planters to match the masculine vibe.
Rarely have you seen exposed brick walls on the balcony. Get inspired by the picture – it looks phenomenal, doesn’t it? We decorated the room with an open metal shelf and a round wooden shelf. We created a comfortable seat on the modular multi-purpose shoe cabinet. We completed the look of this exquisite balcony with some greenery and knick-knacks.
Who said that a wall only has to be red? Paint them green like we did in the image below and quickly transform the space without breaking your budget. You can decorate it with your favorite picture frames and create a gallery wall. The station wagonNation of white furniture and walls contrasting with the sage green brick wall looks fabulous.
