Over the past year or two, you may have noticed copper elements making a striking statement on magazine covers and home improvement shows. Undeniably eye-catching, this current and cool trend adds warmth, and a touch of unique character in contemporary and traditional homes alike. Here are a few ways to get the look in your own kitchen.
- Copper Kitchen Sinks and Faucets
Copper is a classic (and thoroughly classy) material for kitchen sinks and faucets, and serves as a shimmery, stylish alternative to basic stainless steel. Whether you choose undermount or apron front, a copper sink is sure to impress, especially when paired with a complimentary faucet.
- Copper Knobs and Pulls
Shiny metallics and mixed metals are having a moment, and cabinet knobs and pulls are an easy and affordable way to incorporate this trend into your kitchen. Picture antique copper pulls on cabinet doors (and matching pulls on drawers) in a kitchen with contemporary stainless steel appliances. Now picture the look in your own kitchen — one can dream, right?
- Copper Backsplash
Not so long ago, you would need to DIY a metallic backsplash using copper sheets or large copper celling tiles to get the look. Today, you’ll find a large variety of tile in gorgeous copper tones and mosaic patterns, such as our Venetian Glass and Aluminum Tile in Colosseum or Padova.
