My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.
I can speak to the Cooper pendant in that it does not show a lot of gold. It is a hand painted mix of neutral colors to get a distressed aged look. It is really a combination of browns. Hope that helps!
