Request a project quoteThe decisive argument
A restaurant, a hotel, a bar: guests decide within seconds whether the atmosphere matches what they were looking for. Industrial decor creates that instantly recognisable first impression, authentic, warm, and camera-ready.
But in a venue open to the public, the constraints are stricter than anywhere else. Controlled weight, M1 fire-retardant certification, ERP-compliant materials: every one of these requirements is anticipated at the design stage in every Sel d'Embrun project.
A space that leaves a mark builds loyalty. And a 5% increase in loyalty can raise an establishment's profitability by 25 to 95%, depending on the sector. Decor is an investment that pays for itself.
Constraints handled
Required for every ERP venue: restaurants, hotels, bars, retail. Full compliance with French fire safety standards, anticipated from the design stage.
No risk of falling, no structural overload. Our pieces mount on plasterboard, BA13 or lightweight partitions without reinforcement, even on old ceilings.
100% natural materials. No polystyrene, no polyurethane. The metal illusion is created entirely with artisan paint applied by hand.
Every element is designed for your exact space. Dimensions, finishes, layout: no templates, no production runs, nothing off-the-shelf.

Bespoke counters, reception desks and furniture in metal-on-wood illusion. Brushed steel, patinated cast iron or aged rust finishes: a premium result, lightweight and lasting.
Curved arches, IPN beams and decorative structures in metal-on-wood illusion. Brushed steel or patinated cast iron finish, M1 certified for ERP venues. Every piece is unique.
Beyond restaurants
The industrial style is not limited to restaurants. Mountain chalets and prestige residences are increasingly drawn to finishes that combine the visual strength of metal with the natural warmth of wood.
In Megeve, several high-end properties have received a complete decorative treatment: beams, furniture, frames and cladding in a corten rust finish. The industrial style becomes a component of the chalet universe rather than something imposed from outside.
One point of contact. A guaranteed aesthetic consistency from the entrance to the living room, from the ceiling beams to the door handles.
