There are a lot of great finishing touches available for your next bathroom or kitchen! Here’s a list of the Top 5 Hardware & Fixture Options in 2019 that our designers and clients love!
1. Metal Sinks: Metallic sinks can bring unexpected color and finish to your kitchen or bathroom remodel- your sink can also be beautiful, not just functional!

2. Open Plumbing: Industrial elements, such as exposed plumbing hardware, can add a pleasing contrast to the more ornate and elegant design materials in the room.

3. Concealing the Kitchen Hood/Vent: A popular new trend is to forgo the industrial look of an oven hood, and encase it with finished carpentry that matches the surrounding cabinets.

4. Mixed Metals: It’s 2019 and you’re no longer stuck selecting just one finish for your entire design. Mixed metals can add complexity and visual intrigue to your kitchen or bath.

5. Tech Features: Your hardware isn’t just drawer pulls and sconces, it’s also the built-in USB ports above your countertops, and digital features that add luxury and modern amenities to your home.
