Corten and coloured zincs are ideal for external applications… as proposed here in Salford’s Former Police Station (sorry for the pun!). Metals are continuing to feature strongly in our work and they are so rewarding when we see a new stair, handle or elevational treatment that has been beautifully crafted by the metal workers that we work with.
Copper has gone though… sorry! Bronze and gold continue to feature strongly and best of all is the use of several metals used loosely together for an honest feel that is less styled and more created. Oh and of course our favourite is black hardware currently for bathrooms & kitchens.
P.s. Thank you to the kind skip in Knutsford for the timber soap tray in our studio bathroom!
