help 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 Morewhat I've been doing (aka black interior doors)

Comments (24)I do like the look of the dark wall. However, the views from the back of this house are really great. And when I was choosing wall colors what I found was the darker colors around the windows (for the back side of the house) took away from the view. Hard to describe. With the dark walls, you saw the dark wall and window frames. With the light walls, you see "view". Here's my breakfast area, maybe you can see what I mean. I think I'll just put the black doors on the back burner for now. Thank you for the mock ups, they are so helpful!!...See MoreHardware color for family room fireplace builtin
Comments (9)I think in a kitchen polished nickel looks lovely. But I think polished nickel on a white built-in in the living room would look too "kitchen-y" if that makes sense, which is why I like the idea of black. My preference for our new house for a metal finish was antiqued unlacquered brass, but I was at the wrong end of the trend and it was either impossible to find or impossible to afford, so I chose flat black where I could, which I've never had before but which I quite like. It doesn't seem to be all that popular either, so I did make do with some dark bronze or ORB, especially for light fixtures where you're not close enough to see the finish -- not a fan of the living finish either, plus I also don't like the cheaper finishes with the copper showing through, or the flat brown that's supposed to be ORB lol....See MoreS R
