The metallic trend has been gradually returning to our lives and the world of design in recent years, and it is an example of our ability to change our perspective, and instead of seeing it as something outdated - we find in it excitement and an inspiring spark.

Metallic items always surround us - starting with fences and railings, and ending with many other industrialized elements.

Despite the grayness, its use in design was previously associated with palaces and prestigious houses that wanted to emphasize infinite abundance, or choosing it as a frame with a respectable legacy for works of art with a name.

In recent years, with the increasing exposure to Nordic design that incorporates metal as a recurring motif that warms the atmosphere, the material has received a kind of renewed grace.

It can be found integrated into spaces with a soft or childish look, and on the other hand it can also be seen as an integral part of a more mature urban space.

The finish of the material and the choice of shade help in associating it with the design styles - brass with a shiny finish will emphasize a rich classic look, while the exact same material with a grained matte finish will symbolize an urban, more restrained and sophisticated style.

The metal integrates into the home space starting with complementary fittings, small decorative items, lighting fixtures, wall units and even kitchen fronts.

A metallic touch can sometimes change the look of the entire space - replacing the kitchen handles or the bathroom cabinet handles with metallic handles can cause a feeling of a completely new space.

Placing a metallic lighting fixture above the dining area can be all you need to bring new life into the living space.

Metal can be used extensively and can be touched.

How will you do it at home?

To create a pleasant space, you should pay attention to balances.

If the kitchen fronts come in a metallic finish, choose wood for the other kitchen parts.

The meeting between the two materials will create interest and balance the look.

It is always important to consider the entire environment, and make sure that the addition will be graceful and will not create unnecessary load or weight.
