I think you are safe with mixing colours if the style is very similar - for example, if they are all angular and look like the same 'family', then it should work. This is a nice example I found online. The door handle actually helps balance the look too. All the best Lauren!

hi sorry i cant offer advice - but just wondering who you went through - looking at pivotech products but not sure if they will fail :( thanks

I wouldn't be as harsh as Dr Retro , but I'm not a Pro . In fact , I like gold , I like black chrome , I like silver chrome , I like Victorian white tapware , Dr Retro seems to have focused on matt black , but surely thats limiting yourself ? Personally , I'd just go room by room . If your kitchen was dark marble and gloss charcoal cupboard doors etc , then I'd look at gold/brass , or gloss black , or chrome in whatever style complements ( modern in a modern house or modernised house ; 70's in a 70's house ; classic gold or chrome in a Victorian farmhouse ) . If it was ( shiver , shiver ) white benches and cupboard doors and appliances and walls and ceiling , then again black or gold would look great IMO , chrome not so much , but anyone who does white on white on white lacks something anyway haha . So a kitchen , or dining room , or bedroom , or wherever , that is mainly white , or very colourful , or mainly pink , or black and white , may suit some styles , not others . To go one step further , and have black taps and gold handles mixed in one room would depend on the style of the house and/or each room IMO -- gut instinct is no , but I can think of some combo's that may work -- a Victorian house with solid wooden varnished doors , gold/brass handles , a kitchen with a wooden floor , white marble bench-top and black gloss plumbing would look balanced , for example .

I think I may be veering into definite overthinking territory now but these odd-numbered door examples with pull handles don't look too bad: https://www.robesdelivered.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Recessed-doors-2-panel.jpg https://alcovejoinery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/3-Door-Shaker-Wardrobe--768x1024.jpg https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSlEDq4yg_4sRVh9BPlVctXgGjMoyFEZ_hqmA&usqp=CAU I think I may be leaning quite strongly towards the original handles in 22cm length. Thanks for all your feedback
