Golden hues in interiors are hotter than hot
Remember in the 1980’s when gold and brass were big interior
metals and then the trend slowly faded away? Well they have returned in more
subtle ways and wallpaper, furniture and ornamental cabinetry pulls and decor
are big for gold and brass. If you want to add glam to your bedroom, try adding
golden metallic wallpaper that has a slight sheen behind your bed as an
eye-catching accent wall.
Gold tone furniture and lighting are finding a new place
in modern home interiors
Gold and brass are still making a comeback
While you may be partial to wood and natural finished
furniture, don’t turn your nose up at gold painted furniture or even
gold-leafed painted decor to add creative accents to your decorative accent
pieces. Lighting fixtures such as chandeliers, wall sconces and pendant lights
are showing off their new golden hues and bringing these into your home along
with darker hues will add a dramatic flair to your interiors.
A return to green living with corrugated metal
If your decorative style steers more towards the rustic and
natural approach to metallic finishes, why not try the appeal of corrugated metal?

ceilings, sides of cabinetry and creative accent walls in bedrooms and even
adorning masculine bathrooms. Try adding corrugated metal to bring out your
love for recycled and repurposed materials.

Architectural details with corrugated metal materials
When is the last time you’ve seen an architect make a
statement with corrugated metal? While the appeal of using this versatile
material, as a finish is popular, the ability to bend and mould the ribbed
metal into curvilinear forms opens the imagination to new ideas you haven’t
considered. This ceiling shows you how one material can bring about a whole new
sense of design with metallic finishes.
