Matte black continues to make its mark on fashion, home decor, and even appliances. Some might shy away from this trend, but trust us, it packs a strong interior design punch. If you don’t see yourself painting an entire room matte black, try using this finish in cabinet hardware, fixtures, or accessories to make a bold statement in even the smallest spaces.

As this interior design trend was emerging, Cortland Design knew the importance of incorporating matte black into our interiors and the CASK Industries product line. Check out some of our matte black fixtures and finishes here:

Our interior designers paired CASK’s tiered shaker cabinets in Rustic Grey with the matte black Addison hardware. The Radius kitchen faucet and Arlington pendant, both in matte black, create a perfect focal point in this modern kitchen design.

Matte black is great to use in bathrooms since they don’t show wear and tear or water spots as easily as other finishes. Here, matte black is shown in CASK’s Wellington vanity light, the Lee faucet, and the Westridge cabinet door hardware.

So, you might want to ease into this bold design trend, but don’t be afraid to use it as a trim accent, the finish for your house number, or even as exterior lighting (like these beautiful Inspiral sconces designed by Product Development Manager Cliff Joseph).
