When approaching a new interior design project, warm, modern, and luxurious are elements we may strive for. Lucky for us, the emerging trend of Copper and Gray is making it easy to achieve a rich and welcoming space.

Copper is a warm, pinkish-orange color growing in popularity in the kitchen and bath world. When applied to the most common items in our household, it creates functional pieces that double as tasteful decor.

If you're looking for a splash of color in a room, use copper as an accent color in the form of hanging pots and pans, cabinet hardware, and home decor. You can find a variety of home decor items in this luscious hue. Copper wall clocks, planters and vases, candle holders, picture frames, canisters, and pendant lights are popular choices in today's market. Online vintage sellers often have antique copper pots and pans available in their stores if you're opting for a more traditional look.

If you're looking for a bolder design, choose a copper finish for the appliances and cabinet hardware in your kitchen, a free-standing tub in the bathroom, or apply copper sheets to the walls and ceiling of bedrooms and home offices.

Are you planning a rustic style for your space? Copper in brushed or weathered finishes makes an ideal choice. Modern, sleek designs can opt for polished copper for a reflective and lustrous look.

Once you've fallen in love with the eye-catching finish that is copper, you might be wondering what colors work well with it? Copper can pair well with the many new and exciting colors trending in the kitchen and bath industry- however, the reason why copper has been a lasting trend is its ability to work well with neutrals such as gray.

The calming, grounding effect of colors like slate and gray flawlessly contrasts with the bright glow of metallic finishes like copper, gold, and silver. Warm charcoal grays can feel sophisticated while remaining a neutral background for other hues to play on. Gray is a versatile color that can feel chic and contemporary or cozy and traditional depending on the design elements it surrounds.

Any shade of gray can be the best choice of color in a kitchen or bath project. Use copper or slate cabinet hardware on white upper cabinets and choose a neutral gray for lowers or the doors and drawers in an island to create a dimensional look. Gray cabinets with copper hardware and a dynamic backsplash are the perfect recipe for a wet bar design. Better yet, go bold in your bathroom by using a hammered copper sink with a white cabinet vanity and slate cabinet hardware! The possibilities are endless when using two colors that balance each other harmoniously.
