Create a cohesive look

Creating a cohesive look in your home involves blending design elements so each room feels harmonious yet distinct. Quality accessories like table legs, furniture legs, castor legs, cabinet handles, and more can elevate any room’s look and feel with subtle sophistication. Here’s how to do it well with tips, trends, and practical advice on using pieces from our collection to unify your space.

Why choosing quality accessories is essential

Accessories are more than just finishing touches; they bring out the personality of each piece and ensure longevity and function. Investing in high-quality materials, like solid wood or durable metals, doesn’t just enhance the aesthetic appeal but also contributes to durability, ensuring your pieces can withstand daily wear and tear.

Trends in furniture accessories

Combining warm and cool metallic tones in one space adds depth while remaining stylish and fresh. Sustainable woods and recycled metals are also gaining popularity for their environmental benefits, offering both beauty and responsibility. Streamlined, understated designs are trending as well, working seamlessly in both modern and traditional spaces.

Dos and Don’ts for a cohesive look

• Do: Choose a colour palette and stick with it. For instance, warm woods and brass tones create an inviting feel, while cool metals and darker woods offer a sleek, contemporary vibe.
• Don’t: Overcrowd the space with too many textures or colours. The goal is harmony, so if you have brass handles, consider pairing them with wooden legs in a similar hue.
• Do: Consider the function of each accessory. For example, castor legs are ideal for heavy, movable furniture like coffee tables or armchairs, adding both style and mobility.
• Don’t: Mix too many design eras in one space unless you’re going for an eclectic look. Select complementary styles, such as pairing mid-century modern legs with contemporary or minimalistic handles.

Making design fun and empowering

Experimenting with furniture accessories can transform your space without major renovations. Mix and match different leg and handle styles for a personalised feel, whether you’re going for an industrial edge or a soft, vintage charm. By choosing pieces that resonate with you, design becomes not just functional but also an expression of your taste.

Steps to create a cohesive look

• Define your style: Identify the overarching style you want, like modern, rustic, or vintage.
• Select a palette: Choose a colour palette for continuity. Think about tones that can flow easily between rooms, like neutrals or soft pastels.
• Choose key accessories: Start with one or two focal points, such as cabinet handles or sofa legs, that embody your chosen style.
