When you consider how often you will be touching your kitchen handles in a day, you’ll want to make sure that accessibility and comfort are at the forefront of your decision.
Brass handles are fantastic for instantly bringing warmth and a premium feel to your kitchen. This adds to their overall character and blends more naturally with any antiques you may have in the space,' says Alex Bilton, Product Lead at Rowen & Wrenīlack, chrome and brightly coloured metals work wonderfully in fresh modern spaces, bringing a contemporary design edge to your kitchen space. This means that the finish has been designed to change and patina with use. 'You can achieve a softer look by choosing products which have a ‘living finish’. If you have decided on a traditional style kitchen, high-quality metals will also age beautifully over time. These are durable and long-lasting, which is essential in a high-touch point space. When opting for metallics, make sure you settle on high-quality materials such as solid brass or stainless steel. For a more harmonious scheme, pick up on shades already in the space,' says Kate Worthington, founder of Swarf Hardware A bold, contrasting knob or handle works wonders to lift white or grey units. 'Hardware is an excellent way to add a bit of colour and flair to a plain kitchen as handles can be swapped so easily.
Linking the colour and finish to other elements of the kitchen design, such as lighting and kitchen tile ideas, is a great way of keeping fluidity in the space. Think about whether you want your kitchen door handles to blend in with the overall kitchen colour scheme, or if you would like to make a bold statement with contrasting colours. One of the most impactful and personal decisions you will make when choosing your kitchen cabinet handles, is the colour and finish. Slim rectangular pulls and square knobs would really enhance a kitchen with angular features worked in the design. Similarly, if you have angular kitchen lighting ideas and harder edges, consider choosing handles that mimic these lines. If you have predominantly curved details, such as arched taps and round lampshades, choosing cup handles would keep consistency. Take note of the style of your cabinets, the edges of your worktop ideas and any other hardware, fixtures and fittings. When choosing your kitchen handles, looking at the kitchen space as a whole may help you with your decision.
