The Modern Mix: Mixing in Brass and Bronze







How hot is this sofa? I'm dying.  The Tuxedo Sofa  at  Design Within Reach has sexy long bronze legs.

Since I live in an older home, I would pair it with this a chic little accent table, at a great price. I'm thinking of snatching up a couple of these to place next to a reading chair. They will add a touch of warmth to the space...

Shy about metal mixing? Try the low investment of an IKEA ANEGENAM bowl. I would use a couple of these on a coffee table so you notice the subtle bling when you walk by.

These Brown Jordan pieces are instant classics. And the shape is modern enough to keep me happy.
