Contemporary Gate Hardware/Thumb Latch
Comments (0)We are in the process of finishing a renovation at our home, which is fairly modern/contemporary. We have built a pretty contemporary looking fence in our backyard, and need to finish off the gate swing with some hardware (hinges, door latch, thumb latch, etc.) We are looking for something simple, but contemporary. The traditional black decorative hardware that you see everywhere (i.e., Stanly Hardware), while not terribly ornate, looks funny. Does anyone know of hardware -- particularly handles with thumb latches -- that might work?...See Morehelp with door color, style, and hardware (painted black doors)
Comments (12)I, too, love, love painted black doors!! Due to the colors in our home, we ended up doing dark brown/black doors (Pratt & Lambert Obsidian). I love it, although I still wish I had black doors. One day, when we are repainting the house, I will choose colors that go with black! So, to your question. I would do all the same hardware, whether ORB or brushed nickel, etc. I also would do all doors the same color. I went through the same process - thinking only the first floor with brown doors but I was convinced by a colorist to treat all interior doors with the same color treatment so all the doors are brown. I don't regret it for a minute! I really love the look. Here are a few pics - all hardware is brass, as that is what was here. I love the color but I am not crazy about the style. One day we will change them out. French doors: My den:...See MoreContemporary,traditional,country,modern? What do you say?
Comments (15)I'd just say beautiful!! Great job!! Your kitchen reminds me of my new master bath I'm putting together. Long time ago I saw some gorgeous light fixtures I had to have and they are over the top beautiful crystal and nickle and modern. I spent so much on lighting fixtures that wnen it came time for the cabinets/vanities I tried to find a way to save money. So I opted for some inexpensive, yet very nice vanities that are more of an antique style. Then we come to the flooring and shower. Well, the shower is now going to be glass block, which I believe is pretty generic when it comes to style, and the flooring is porcelain tile in a beige stone look. The walls are a gray/green/blue. So I'm holding my breath waiting to see what all these different elements look like when they are all in place in the same room. If nothing else, I'll just tell people it's shabby/chic!! My poor DH who doesn't know that much about interior design keeps reassuring me it will all look beautiful. I do so want to believe him!! That's what I'm going on right now and hoping for the best. Your kitchen is fabulous!!...See MoreContemporary/ modern designers - granite question
Comments (18)If you're looking a Abstrakt, that's beyond contemporary and quite Danish modern. But if you think they look good together, you're the one that has to live with it. Have as much movement as you see fit. Just remember if you ever sell the place, the more middle of the road, the broader the appeal. And if you want others to ooh and aah (let's be honest, who doesn't want to be the envy of all their friends?), consider middle of the road. We just bought a modern style home that has a LOT of traditional finishes: light fixtures, 4 panel doors, huge fancy crown and base moldings, dark natural stone floorings, etc. It worked for them, but we're replacing everything with truly modern stuff. Not to follow style rules, but because it's our house, and that's what we want. I say it's your house, if you love it, do it! David...See MoreC Marlin
