Mixed metals in open floor plan?

last year

Hello! I’m getting a new sink and quartz countertops installed soon and am wanting to switch out my current stainless steel pulls for brass. The trouble is, I don’t know how/where to incorporate brass anywhere else to bring it all together and I fear I’ve already broken the rules about having too many metals -_- Also, which finish of brass? Aged? Brushed? Antique? Lacquered? Unlacqured?

I live in a small, open floor plan townhome, where satin nickel/stainless is my primary metal (door handles, hardware, light fixtures, appliances, & sink) and matte black is my secondary metal (faucet, workstation sink accessories, & kitchen table/chairs).

The living room, however, has a chrome/glass chandelier tables (I know, I know! lol; I love the chandelier, but indifferent about the tables).

If I change the pulls to brass, to incorporate more warmth, how can I make this a cohesive design in the open floor plan? Should I…
*Install brass pendent/fixture over sink?
*Keep matte black faucet or change to stainless?
*Add brass accessories (i.e. vase)
*Switch nickel lamps to brass in living room?
*Switch foyer light fixture to matte black?
*Paint lower cabinets SW Gauntlet Gray?

As you can see, I’m crashing out lol, any advice is GREATLY appreciated!!

Add’l info:
Walls: SW Repose Gray
Floor: Pergo Cliffside Oak
Cabinets: SW Extra White
Countertops: Cambria Harlow
Sink: RVH8584 (stainless workstation w black accessories)
