home: trend [ bronze ]

The metallics trend continues this year with designers and high street stores continuing the love of using metallic tones in homewares and furnishings.

From that metallic family, bronze is a rich warming tone that can be used in various amounts to bring great tone to a room.

For subtle introduction to bronze, there are plenty of great small homewares but for a bigger impact; brands are offering wallpapers, paints, tiles and larger pieces of furniture in bronze.

Bronze can compliment and sit with many other colours including navy, black, white, neutrals and even pinks.
