It is increasingly easier to find truly elevated metallic applications in interior design.Whether it's a focal point or an accessory piece, adding a bit of bling through metallics is so hot right now.
As you will notice below, most of the beautiful rooms I have selected to feature have neutral or soft background colors as to let the metallics become the focus of the design. Mixing natural materials like stone and wood also lend to the metallic materials' earthy origins.
After reading this post you are sure to be on the way to embracing metallics throughout the home.
Where better to start than in the kitchen. Both of these beautiful spaces from Remodelista show how to incorporate metallics in varying ways.
On the left dark floors, sage bottom cabinets and marble countertops create the perfect canvas for bold brass handles and copper canisters. Adding a brass pull down faucet kicks the fun level up a notch and takes the design style to the next level.
On the right gold foil cabinets take center stage in this showstopper kitchen. Matching the level of drama these cabinets bring, the veining of the marble countertops and floors makes this kitchen a true gem. Topping off the look with an understated gold pendant light completes the look.
While it may be too much for some people to embrace metallics in your master bathroom, the powder room is the perfect place to let the modern sparkle shine.
The warm, inviting gold tones of the powder room on the left from Style Me Pretty makes the powder room feel special while still approachable. The shine from the gold wallpaper is just the right amount of sparkle without being overt.
On the right, this bathroom is pure wow factor thanks to a wall of silver metallic tiling behind the sink. Again the dominance of the silver is matched by incredibly beautiful veiny marble floors. A Detailed House gives us a powder room that acts as a jewel box and 'wow' factor for guests in your home.
When styling your living room or dining room, I notice most people like to utilize the metallics as accessories since the pieces have so much personality.
On the left, petrified wood shaped coffee tables in gold make a bold statement. The living room from Decoholic uses the coffee tables as the focal point of the room, while keeping the complimentary furniture light and airy.
On the right, Desire to Inspire's dining room pairs mid-century shell chairs and a rustic wooden table with bold copper pendants. The oversized pendants have a beautiful reflective quality that pops light through out the space as they make a statement.
