Appliances Design Dilemma Kitchens

Mixed metal question about kitchen

last year

I have a wide open kitchen with an island...all white cabinets and 2 sinks, one larger and one small. Both need new faucets. Both are stainless sinks and the appliances are all stainless. Can I get a different metal for both faucets (they would match)? Thoughts....

Sure. Stainless steel sink goes with whatever hardware.

Just to add that all of my appliances are stainless steel, not just the sinks.

What do the knobs and/or pulls on the cabinets look like?

I was thinking of brass/gold faucets with the stainless sinks and other appliances

I think a touch of a soft gold (not bright brass) would be good since you have a tie in with your knows. You might keep your eye open for a touch of brass with another accessory or two - a fruit bowl, a box to hold teas, a decorative figure -- whatever works in your kitchen.
