✨ Hardware in Design — The Small Details That Make a Big Difference ✨

In our studio, hardware is never an afterthought — it’s part of the design conversation from the very beginning. From the tap in your kitchen to the handles on your cabinets, the door levers you touch every day, and even the light switches on the wall — these small elements quietly shape how your home feels and functions.
Hardware bridges aesthetics, craftsmanship, and practicality. The finish, texture, and form influence the wider palette — tying together materials, joinery, lighting, and architecture to create a cohesive flow throughout the home.
Here’s how we think about it 👇
🖤 Architectural Hardware — door handles, locks, hinges, and window fasteners that define how you move through a space.
🌿 Joinery & Furniture Hardware — cupboard handles, drawer pulls, and hinges that bring character and tactility to kitchens, wardrobes, and built-ins.
💧 Bathroom Hardware — taps, showers, and flush plates that combine beauty with function.
💡 Electrical Hardware — switches, dimmers, and sockets that can be styled to suit the mood of a room.
✨ Decorative Hardware — curtain poles, brackets, and hooks that finish a space with subtle elegance.
When chosen with intention, hardware connects every layer of design — architecture, materials, and daily living. Whether it’s aged brass with oak for warmth or matte black with stone for contrast, these details ground a space in its own identity.
Good design isn’t just seen — it’s felt in every touchpoint of your home. 🖤
