A matte finish is being combined with metallics to create a striking contrast of sheens. The new matte finishes are represented in moody dark hues and pretty pastels (talk about varying contrasts). Matte black is especially raising eyebrows in the kitchen, where in recent years we opted for all white surfaces, stainless steel appliances and fixtures.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Matte black adds a contemporary contrast, while copper warms the dark hue up, playing well off each other. Here are a few ways to incorporate the hues:<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 600px; margin: 0 auto;\">\n<div style=\"position: relative;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.polyvore.com\/matte_black_copper\/set?.embedder=17069808&amp;.svc=copypaste&amp;id=209960578\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Matte Black &amp; Copper\" src=\"http:\/\/cfc.polyvoreimg.com\/cgi\/img-set\/.sig\/VNVjAc1eleReCBQoqCLX7g\/cid\/209960578\/id\/tqsVMTSV5hGSbX_UihlwOg\/size\/c600x728.jpg\" alt=\"Matte Black &amp; Copper\" width=\"600\" height=\"728\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><small><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.polyvore.com\/matte_black_copper\/set?.embedder=17069808&amp;.svc=copypaste&amp;id=209960578\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Matte Black &amp; Copper<\/a><\/span> by <span style=\"color: #008080;\"><a style=\"color: #008080;\" href=\"http:\/\/tori-toth-arena.polyvore.com\/?.embedder=17069808&amp;.svc=copypaste\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tori-toth-arena<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/small><\/span><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">It&#8217;s important to note while this color combo could promote elegance and sophistication, it should\u00a0be used sparingly. Matte black can be challenging to keep clean, can look grim and visually shrink a room, while too much copper can actually make the room look cheap.\u00a0So, find the perfect balance for your space and if you&#8217;re scared to adopt this trend use it in your smaller accessories that you can easily swap out when it goes out of style.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Consider reusing items around your home to create this\u00a0high-end luxe modern look on a budget by doing it yourself using matte black and copper spray paint to refresh old items around your home including: lamps, frames or ceramics.
