Why green cabinetry
and warm brass work

Green cabinetry has increasingly become the cornerstone of many
interior palettes. And when finished with warm brass, it doesn’t just settle
into the space; it grounds it.

In kitchens and living spaces alike, there is a return to the elemental, with emphasis on materials
that feel as good as they look. From painted
timber to brushed and burnished brass, green cabinetry evokes nature
and balance.

Why brass is the perfect finishing touch

The beauty of green and brass lies in its versatility. On
green cabinetry, brass is at its most expressive, adding subtle warmth and drama.

The complementary nature of green and brass creates a space that feels considered. Green’s cool undertones, with its nod to nature, contrast beautifully with the warmth of brass, which adds an opulence that creates a balanced living atmosphere, for both traditional and modern settings.

Our styling tips

The magic lies in choosing tones that speak to one another:

  • For depth, opt for forest or olive greens with aged or burnished brass, perfect for creating a cocooning, heritage-inspired space.
  • For softness, try mid-tone sages or mossy greens
    with brushed satin brass, paired with natural textures like linen or rattan.
  • For drama, go for darker greens and lean into contrast, with dark accents or unlacquered brass that develops a living patina.
