Gold can add a touch of elegance to a decorating scheme, but for metals in the bathroom and kitchen, they’re yesterday’s news.
What’s in? Silver tones, ranging from shiny, polished chrome to brushed nickel to stainless steel.
Bathroom accessory styles tend to follow what’s popular in the kitchen, and stainless steel has been popular for many years. Stick with silver tones in the bathroom for now.
If you love gold, sneak it in—very subtly—in the form of a dark, oil-rubbed bronze. It has the look of antique metal and lends a touch of luxury to a bathroom.
You may have noticed that home stores are carrying a few bronze-colored appliances for the kitchen. Designers say bronze could be the next color trend when it comes to metals for the kitchen and bathroom.
But polished brass? It’s not poised to make a comeback anytime soon. However, for those who love the polished brass look, Delta has come out with a Champagne Bronze finish, that give you the modern update you may want.
