Interior designers tell LISA SALMON that silver and chrome can look good everywhere in the home, not just in kitchens and bathrooms

- Interior designers tell LISA SALMON

Shining examples

AFTER years of brass and black fixtures and fittings in homes, old favourites silver and chrome are making a comeback - although many would say they never really went away.

“Silver and chrome have long been cornerstones of interior design, and while warmer metallic tones have dominated in recent years, these cool-toned finishes are making a confident return,” says interior designer Iliada Rossi, design director and founder of Rossi Studio.

“Their sleek, reflective qualities bring a crisp, contemporary feel to spaces, while maintaining a classic appeal that transcends fleeting trends.”

Fresh, contemporary look

The most obvious rooms to showcase chrome and silver and silvery stainless steel are of course bathrooms and kitchens, but the metallic finishes work well in other spaces too, stresses Iliada.

“In kitchens, chrome fixtures and stainless steel appliances create a contemporary look that’s both functional and stylish. In bathrooms, silver and chrome add a sense of cleanliness and refinement, particularly when used in taps, shower enclosures, towel rails, and mirror frames.

“And when incorporated into furniture details, such as chair legs, table bases, or statement lighting, they lend a touch of sophistication without overwhelming the overall design.”

Timeless appeal
