Bronze and Brass: The Oxidized Step

An oriental luxury space finished with bronze-colored metal. The metal surface is oxidized, the color is a brownish deep gold, not bright brass; the luster is semi-matte, with only soft reflections and no dazzling highlights. It appears in the form of fine lines: an inlay strip in a cabinet door seam, a dividing line between stone and wood, the frame of a light fixture, door handles and pulls. Only this one type of metal is used throughout the house. Avoid: using electroplated bright gold, mixing gold and silver metals, making metal into large area panels, using metal in more than five or six locations.

一個以古銅色金屬收邊的東方奢華空間。金屬的表面經過氧化處理,顏色是帶褐的深金,不是明亮的黃銅色;光澤是半霧的,只有柔和的反射沒有刺眼的高光。它以細線的形式出現:櫃體門縫的一道嵌條、石材與木材交界的一條分隔、燈具的骨架、門把與拉手。全屋只有這一種金屬。避免:使用電鍍的亮金色、混用金色與銀色兩種金屬、讓金屬做成大面積的板、把金屬用在超過五六個位置。
