Black, copper, and stainless steel
Light fixtures: Matte Black and Copper
Cabinet hardware: Matte Black
Fridge hardware: Black Slate
Sink Faucet: Stainless Steel

Gold, black, and bronze
Light fixtures: Gold and Matte Black
Cabinet hardware: Matte Black
Stove hardware: Base is Matte Black and Stainless Steel with Brushed bronze handle and knobs
Sink Faucet: Champagne Bronze
Why we love it: The brushed bronze knobs against the matte black of the stove adds a fun pop of color and accentuates the wood accents.
Pro-tip: Create contrast with small details. That way, you won’t overwhelm the space with your metal-mixing.
Brushed nickel, antique brass, and black
Wall light fixture: Brushed Nickel and Matte Black Shade
Pendant: Antique Brass and Bronze Industrial Bowl
Cabinet hardware: Matte Black
Fridge hardware: Stainless Steel
Sink Faucet: Matte Black
Why we love it: Because they offer a stunning contrast, the pendant lights become a centerpiece for the room.
Pro-tip: Light fixtures don’t have to match.
Copper, bronze, and black
Light fixtures: Copper Satin
Cabinet hardware: Verona Bronze
Fridge hardware: Stainless Steel
Sink Faucet: Matte Black
Why we love it: The matte black blends beautifully with the warm copper and bronze, which makes the space feel lighter and brighter.
Pro-tip: Choose one finish as the dominant finish, and use other finishes to complement it.
Brass, nickel, and bronze
Light fixtures: Natural Brass
Cabinet hardware: Satin Nickel
Bath hardware/tub: Champagne Bronze
Why we love it: The brass and champagne bronze create warmth and atmosphere in the space, which would be lacking if all the hardware was satin nickel.
Pro-tip: When it comes to fixtures and lighting, don’t mix more than three metals in a room.
