SPOTLIGHT ON COLOUR: COPPER

THIS MONTH, WE TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR SHADES IN OUR METALLIC SPRAY PAINT RANGE — THE ELEGANT AND CHIC, BRIGHT COPPER.

 

Ever since renowned British Designer, Tom Dixon, launched his copper pendant lights, metal has taken over the world of interior design and this uber stylish colour has been flying off the shelves.

 

Breaking from the traditional kitchen and bathroom features, copper is now being used all over the home. And because this trend looks set to last, here’s what you need to know about this new must-have metallic.

 

 

Copper is one of the oldest metals known to man. It’s also been used for decorative items since its discovery with the first known copper article, a pendant, dating back to 9000 BC.

 

Copper’s natural warmth will bring a touch of elegance to any room, with light fittings and accessories being the easiest way to add the trend to your home.

Copper Colour Palette

Try combining copper with natural elements such as wood and marble for a fantastic contrast of earthy materials and textures. If you want to go bolder, pair your copper with bright block colours to really make a statement.

 

Metallics looks amazing in the home and copper is the perfect way of adding some cosy sophistication to yours. It’s an understated, cool lux that can be easily incorporated into a variety of interior schemes.
