When it comes to transforming a business space through exciting and unique furniture choices, we have seen first hand the power of steampunk. Through our many years of service, we have supplied a wide range of businesses with exciting industrial style furniture, and it has always made a big impact. Whether you’re running a bustling café, an upscale restaurant, or a creative workspace, our industrial furniture solutions could be the perfect fit for your business premises, and we’ve created this blog to tell you more.
High-Impact Seating Solutions
Finding the perfect balance between style and practicality in commercial seating can be a headache. Our Steam Traction Tall Stools sort that right out. At 70cm tall, they’re ideal for creating that industrial-chic look at your bar or workspace without sacrificing comfort. The cast aluminium frame means they’ll handle whatever your customers throw at them, while still looking smart years down the line.
And if you’re running a restaurant, you’ll want to have a look at our Steam Linkage Chairs. They’re built to last but always maintain a stylish and sophisticated aesthetic – exactly what you need when you’re serving hundreds of customers daily. The high backs and custom upholstery options mean your diners stay comfortable through long meals, while the industrial design elements keep your space looking distinctive.
Statement Tables for Every Need
Looking to make an impression? The Steam Traction Rectangle Table does just that. At 179cm x 99cm, it’s certainly a statement piece, and the glass top is certain to add a bit of class while keeping that industrial aesthetic that you’re going for. The safety glass top means you won’t have to worry about wear and tear, and the cast aluminium frame is virtually indestructible – perfect for busy commercial environments.
For cafés and lounges, our Steam Pipe Coffee Tables are brilliant for creating those cosy corners where customers love to linger. At 50cm high and 110cm wide, they’re sized just right for everything from quick coffee meetings to lengthy laptop sessions. The exposed pipe design draws the eye without overwhelming the space, while the durable construction means they’ll still be turning heads years from now.
Small Details, Big Impact: Accessories and Finishing Touches
The devil’s in the details, as they say. While our larger pieces set the tone, it’s often the smaller elements that truly complete a space. Our Steam Pipe Shelves are the perfect choice for café owners and boutique retailers and are ideal for displaying merchandise or creating eye-catching wall features. The cast aluminium frame means they’re not just for show – they’ll handle whatever weight you throw at them.
Lighting makes or breaks atmosphere, and our Steam Pipe lighting range understands this perfectly. The Twin Wall Light, at 30cm wide, provides both illumination and industrial charm. It’s particularly effective in creating intimate zones in larger spaces – think cosy restaurant corners or highlighted retail displays. The single Steam Pipe Wall Light, at a neat 20cm by 10cm, works brilliantly in sequences along corridors or as subtle accent lighting.
Here’s a clever tip: use the smaller pieces to test out a steampunk aesthetic before committing to larger furniture items. It’s a low-risk way to see how your customers respond to the industrial style. Plus, these pieces are easy to relocate or repurpose as your space evolves.
Customisation is King
At Nautilus Steam, we can imprint your company’s personality right onto your furniture. We can cast your logo into chair backs, match your brand colours (got over 200 to choose from), or add any personal touches you fancy. It’s your business – your furniture should reflect that.
When your furniture carries your brand, it’s doing marketing work while serving its primary function. The possibilities are endless with this service, so making something truly unique and eye catching couldn’t be simpler.
The Business Benefits
Let’s be practical. Here’s what makes our furniture a solid investment for your business:
- Durability That Pays Off: Everything we make comes straight from the Midlands, using British suppliers who know their stuff. These pieces aren’t just furniture – they’re built to be assets that’ll still be serving your business years down the line.
- Versatile Performance: The powder-coated finishes can handle a jet wash, and they work brilliantly indoors or out. When you’re running a busy establishment, being able to move pieces between indoor and outdoor spaces gives you valuable flexibility.
- Quick Turnaround: We’ll have your pieces ready in 4-8 weeks. That’s custom-made, built-to-order furniture delivered in about the same time you’d wait for mass-produced pieces.
- Adaptability: All our pieces can be modified as your business grows or changes. Need to adjust the height of those bar stools? Fancy a different colour scheme next year? We’ve got you covered.
- Cost-Effective Branding: When your furniture incorporates your brand elements, it’s doing double duty – functional pieces that also reinforce your business identity. That’s smart spending in anyone’s book.
Making Your Space Work Harder
Competitive businesses need every advantage they can get. The right furniture doesn’t just fill space – it creates an atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Our steampunk pieces do exactly that, bringing together old-school industrial charm with modern functionality.
The trick is choosing pieces that not only look the part but can handle the daily demands of a busy commercial environment. That’s why we put so much emphasis on proper materials and solid construction. Yes, our furniture makes a statement, but it’s backed up by genuine durability and practicality.
