COPPER
 

The colour Copper has been used in design for many years.

Its soft texture and colour are very popular among designers and architects that use this material in many different innovative ways. Not only material, but there is also a variety of metallic paints available on the market such as Hammerite paints that can be applied on metallic or wooden finishes.

It is commonly used in kitchen spaces not only as kitchen utensils or vintage pots, but more and more on larger areas like kitchen back-splashes and kitchen worktops. What became very popular recently were solid brass islands that were very eye-catching. A copper island could add a very stylish twist to a modern sleek kitchen space. If you are a copper enthusiast but prefer tones in smaller amounts, accessories are the way to go.

We love a combination of marble with a metallic shade like brass or copper. We have spotted this beautiful and affordable Miner wall clock made of slate and copper.  It’s simply stunning.

Another simple but beautiful furniture piece that we used is Swedese coffee & side table.

Lighting is an important element of any interior space that can not be overlooked. Copper pendants or over sized floor lamps are not only stylish and luxurious additions to your room but also reflect additional light around, creating an illusion of a brighter space.

Another way how to bring the shade into an interior is via kitchen or bathroom taps. Copper armchair or sofa details are certainly stylish and luxurious too.

London Residence – The finishing Touches
 

We were on site this week at our London Residence project where the final touches to the design are being installed.

You may remember our London Residence project from last year and with the patterned tiles, timber and minty green kitchen complete it is now time for joinery, copper, paneling, upholstery and prints.

The details really tie together the over all design for this vibrant young couple in the London Fields area of London. They wanted to create a home that expressed their character and strike a balance between sophistication and fun, the perfect place for family as well as entertaining friends.

The project is bold and playful in it’s use of both colour and materials with patterned fabrics, wallpaper, prints and paint all adding the the base of tiles and wooden floors.
