Why Copper Still Works This 2018

Monday, April 16th, 2018

If you’ve fallen in love with the red-brown metal with a shiny coat, then you probably have a few copper pieces in your home. The year 2017 was a huge year for this type of metal that’s mined in open pits. The world of interior design isn’t quite finished with this charming metal just yet. So don’t be surprised if you will see a glimmer or two of copper accents this year.

Copper has been used in home and building décor for thousands of years. This is an element that’s a known conductor of electricity. But it’s not just a piping or wiring material. It is so malleable and it offers a lovely red-orange shine when properly polished that it can transform interior design in a snap.

The Copper Kitchen

It is still fancy to decorate with farmhouse faucets as well as stove hood vent. The shiny rose finish is what makes this metal an awesome addition to your kitchen. And what’s a kitchen without the polished pots and pans, right? Have them all on full display.

These pots are no longer just functional, they also become decorative in the process. These pieces effortlessly give your kitchen a rustic look. Just make sure that you maintain the gleaming finish so that the style stays, too.

But don’t just limit your kitchen to just the copper pots, pans, and faucets, though. There is a lot more to copper than just these stuff. You can also go further with a copper-colored sink. You can also use copper-clad glasses, mugs, decanters, and corkscrews.

Copper kettle, anyone? Do away with the stainless steel and go for something more exceptional.

Remember that each piece is timeless but if you want copper to be the star of the show, then have a copper countertop installed. You will have the benefit of having a bacteria-free countertop since copper is biostatic. This unique countertop is sure to become a vivid complement to the décor in the kitchen (or even the bathroom if you’re using tiles).

The Copper Pendant

Quality lighting has the power to make or break a home’s design. The initial step in looking for the best lighting for a home is to decide which kind of lighting fixture to install. More and more homeowners are buying pendant lighting because of their beauty and versatility.

Pendant lighting can be used in either contemporary or traditional homes. This is the perfect accent to cap the look in a room. It can be hung high or low and it has a lot of options.

Copper pendant lighting is best in illuminating areas that need concentrated lighting. It is not harsh to the eyes because it is both decorative and easy to look at. Even the moodiest room will look attractive with any copper pendant.

If the pendant light is a little too decorative for you, then you can also opt for the glow of the bedside lamp. The copper-inspired table lamp can be placed on a dining room buffet, by the bedside, and the living area.

The Copper Accents

If you long to give your space a dose of style that is far from overpowering, then copper can be your go-to element. You can add some glossy, copper candelabra or some copper terrariums. What about a metal-inspired pillow?

Copper can make your room appear more stunning. Just incorporate a copper accent or two. A lot of copper pieces isn’t good, too, as they could make the room look like a metal shop. Use some copper wall décor such as pressed tiles, plaques or some copper-lined mirrors. These will surely bring out the warmth in the room.
