mixing hardware in the kitchen

Posted by sew4tejhtr6ier Senin, 07 November 2011 0 komentar

one of the questions i get asked a lot is about mixing things.

is it ok to have a bronze light fixture in one room, and chrome in another?

can i have a tan rug in this space and a blue one over here?
will a striped chair look right with a geometric pillow in it?

can i mix pulls and knobs?

i believe that a home gets character, personality and warmth from layers of textures, colors and shapes. if you love something, buy it. your home should be a collection of useful and beautiful items that serve a function and reflect who you are. who cares if they don't match?

a new home was recently constructed in the neighborhood where i used to live, and the homeowner invited me over for a tour. the home is really beautiful and well-constructed, but the one room that really caught my attentions was the kitchen!
first of all, it has one of my DREAM elements in it...something that i have been trying to talk my husband into since house #2--a COFFERED CEILING on an ANGLE! *gush*
i am in love!

thinking about the math involved in pulling this off is making my brain hurt...

the homeowners own a commercial kitchen supply company, so the appliances in this kitchen would make any chef envious.

another element that really caught my eye was the fearless mix of hardware.

there are round knobs mixed with cup pulls and oblong pulls.

check out the mix here:
huge almost appliance-size pulls mixed with cup pulls and above that, the oblong pulls again.

mixing pulls is something that can easily be done to dress up your kitchen. if the prospect of this scares you, consider starting small...if you have all knobs, drill another hole in your cabinets and change them out for pulls.

what do you think about mixing hardware?

is it something you have done?

would you do anything different if you HAVE done it?

or, do you prefer all hardware to match?
