Life, Styled
While cabinets tend to be the focal point of the main spaces, such as kitchens and bathrooms, it is the details that add the final touch to the design. The selection process can be one of the highlights of the design phase, but it can also be overwhelming with multiple styles, colors, and options. In this three-part series, we want to give our best tips for the top three categories of selections and help make this as enjoyable and simple as possible. Our focus today is hardware.
Hardware
Often referred to as the jewelry of the cabinets, they also play a vital role in function since they allow homeowners easy opening and closing of doors and drawers while keeping them all clean. Here are a few things to consider when choosing hardware for your space.
Style
Modern or traditional? Farmhouse or French Country? There are plenty of style options available for you, no matter where your tastes lie. Hardware designs that are raised and elegant tend to have a more traditional feel, while smooth hardware with simple curves tends to have a more modern feel. Don’t forget about rustic and vintage; they can add unique character to the area.
Color
Brass, polished nickel, gold, silver, and oil rubbed are some of the choices offered by manufacturers, which means there is something that goes with your particular style that will perfectly blend or add the right pop needed to your design. Browse through project galleries to get inspired and find the right combination for you. Don’t be afraid to look at things that are a little bold or different; it’s your space and should be a reflection of you.

Whoever said you can’t mix business with pleasure clearly never partnered with Greenbrook Design. When the owners of the historic Campbell Building—also home to Greenbrook Design—envisioned transforming part of the space into a modern event venue, Uptown Indigo, along with a stylish loft apartment, our team embraced the challenge. We quickly developed a thoughtful plan to seamlessly integrate residential comfort with commercial functionality, demonstrating how great design can serve both work and lifestyle needs in one beautifully cohesive space.

While classic stained wood tones and the ever-popular white and gray palette have their place, they’re not the only options available. For those looking to make a bold, personal statement with color, exploring less conventional combinations can bring fresh energy to the space.
