April 6, 2019

Mix Metals – This spring we are mixing it up! This season it’s all about playing with both warm and cool metallic tones. Mixing the warmer tones of copper, gold or brass with the cooler tones of chrome, silver, and steel brings sophisticated dazzle to your interior. Today, Best Design Books is going to show you some ideas for experimenting with mix metals in your mid-century modern living room. Metal isn’t just for the kitchen and bathroom, it can also liven up a living space.

At the heart of this trend is the desire to personalize a living space.
