One characteristic of an industrial style is its ceiling that leaves the usually hidden pipes and wires uncovered. This kind of exposed ceiling is commonly used in public and semi-public buildings like restaurants, galleries and offices.

The application of this ceiling model is usually dominated by black and white.
