Using Steel and Cooper in Interior Design

2012-01-30T17:47:04Z

If you think about it, prominent metals in interior design are more often seen in large commercial spaces. So it might seem a bit unorthodox when trying to incoporate steel and cooper for interior design for your home. However, those of us Brooks & Falotico are up to the design challenge. If you admire the shine of steel, aluminum and copper, then the following photos illustrate how you can bring the modern minimalism of such metals into your house: living rooms, kitchens and entire indoor spaces. We’ll be creative for you. We want you to think of using steel and cooper for details on a fireplace, fountains or even your walls and ceilings. Check out some of the amazing applications shown in these pictures below.

First, look at the metallic interior in this home. The homeowner was not afraid to place a ribbed metal ceiling into this space.

Fabulous Floor Patterns

You know what they say: you have to work from the ground up. And at Brooks & Falotico, we take to heart the veracity of that mantra. We think that floor patterns in any home, especially an upscale custom-built home, can set the tone for the entire house. Our experts are illustrating a few examples that are the paradigms of stunning floor patterns.

We start with this painted wood floor. On it is a large-scale geometric pattern in neutral hues that brings out the room’s tone and mood.

The floor of this outdoor den provides lots of vibrancy. The homeowner laid black-and-white tiles on the diagonal to bring life to the pattern.

We adore how the homeowner sets these aged bricks in neat rows to accentuate the outdoor space.
