From emerald green, earthy browns to claret shades. Rich colours are embarking on an upward trend within the world of interior design, adding depth and character, whilst also offering warmth and cosiness.

Choosing rich colours can seem like a dramatic choice, however, when done right, it enhances the living space tremendously, offering elegance and sophistication. So, with that being said, it's important to get the balance right with the hardware.

The single most important thing to remember when using rich colours is to use contrast! Notice how the deep green above is warmed significantly by the lighter textures of the American Bronze Finish Kitchen Cabinet Bar Knurled Design Handles above. The finish of the handle has massively uplifted the design and added a beautiful sophistication to the piece.

Another great example of contrast is the Matt Black Finish Bau Ring Style Cabinet Pull Handle against the redwood shade. The use of darker tones of the hardware and cabinet top against the richness of the redwood really makes the colour pop, whilst also making the hardware standout, creating depth and giving the room a contemporary feeling.

Whether you decide to go down the route of rich colours or stick with a more neutral design, we've got plenty to choose from here at The Handle Studio, and if there's anything we can assist with, then please reach out to us with your enquiries.
