Metallic handlerails are the perfect option if you want to subtly integrate metallic accents into your design.

Metallic handlerails will bring a sophisticated layer of detail to your design and set your handleless kitchen apart from the rest. This is also great option if your kitchen is on the smaller size – their reflective qualities will twinkle and allow light to bounce across the room making the space appear larger. By opting for a handleless kitchen, you’ll also be able to take advantage of our unique modern storage options like Linea and LineaPlus.

4. Mix and match cool metallics with other cool textures

When you think of metallic in interior design, “cold and sterile” might spring to mind. However, that certainly doesn’t have to be the case. Blend cool metallic shades like our Titaniuim with the natural wood tones of our Ligna range for a natural Scandi look or create a space that oozes calming serenity by mixing Milano Levante Marble Worktops, Ligna Washed Oak wall units and Metalix Aluminium splashbacks.

5. Mix and match warm metallics with other warm textures

Warm metallic finishes like our Copper, Bronze and Brass and the natural wood tones of our new Ligna range truly are a match made in heaven. Why not balance the textured finishes of Farmhouse Oak and Milano Arctic Frost with Metalix Bronze and the smooth finish of Burnt Umber to create a warm and rustic modern space.
