Design Inspiration for your home or office
Posted: July 14, 2015 Filed under: Customer Creations, Galvanised Tube, Tube Clamp Leave a commentAre you looking for modern industrial design inspiration for your home or office?
Have you thought about new ways in which you can modernise your workspace?
The trend at the moment is for the industrial design furniture so we thought we’d give you a helping hand by coming up with some suggestions, that are easy to do, and don’t have to cost the earth.
Here’s an example of how James Kemp, one of our customers, bought tube clamping to create a trendy desk at exactly the right dimensions for his room, with beautiful matching shelves.
And below is a picture from S & L Flowers in Chichester who created an eye catching shelving display in their shop.
Take a look at the shelves that were made on the DIY SOS programme for a teenage boy who wanted something stylish yet functional for his bedroom.

The sky’s the limit and you can order it all from our online store.
We try our utmost to get your order to you within 24 hours and we’ll even cut it to size for you. But best of all, delivery of your order is free if its £70.00 or more.
We’d love to see your creations, so please tag us in on Twitter @TheMetalStoreUK and we could be showing off your show stopper next time around.
Industrial Design Ideas for your Kitchen
Posted: July 8, 2015 Filed under: Galvanised Tube, Tube Clamp Leave a commentAre you thinking of creating the urban industrial kitchen design look for your home? Urban industrial décor is all the rage at the moment. Do you need some ideas?
With loft living becoming increasingly trendy, and interior designers being encouraged to make the most of the unused space, bare brickwork and steel piping has become popular with cool and trendy retailers and homes. Bars and restaurants are exposing brickwork and metal pipes, and people are paying huge amounts of money for chick and stylish kitchens with revealed pipework and lots of re-cycled timber.
There’s an easy and affordable way that you can create this look for your own kitchen, by using some of our products, so why not get your creative juices flowing and see what you can create?
You’ll get so much more satisfaction from making it yourself and it’s as easy as pie.
Some ideas that we’ve pulled together
This butcher’s block has similar components as our desk, we’ve just substituted the toughened glass for the butchers block wood.
Need some more inspiration?
Why not make your own shelving for herbs and spices or your cookery books?
Just measure the size that you need and order all the pieces from our website.
We’d love to see what you’ve been making so please feel free to send them into us and we’ll share them on our Facebook and Twitter pages.
And if you get stuck you can always phone our helpful sales team who can advise you on the best bit of tube clamp for your project.
It’s a little like Lego, but for grown-ups!
