Copper veneer | How to be on trend

Copper veneer as a design element adds a warm glow and elegance to any home, office, restaurant or commercial fit-out. Copper, along with brass and rose gold are much less harsh than the greys. They are soft and reflective. It is “on trend” in 2017 as designers move away from grey and into the light, comforting tones of the “brown” metals.

Metalier NZ coated aluminium louvres with copper. This was so the louvres would match the roof, spouting and downpipes. This solved the external aesthetics of the building. There was a bonus. It created a warm copper glow in the interior.

Antiqued Copper from India

In this post, we are showcasing a copper pattern created by our talented team in India, who are all set up and ready to train applicators on the Indian sub-continent. This particular antiqued finish is created using Metalier’s own patinas.

It’s a design the Indian team have created. It looks somewhat like the antiqued copper we produce at Head Quarters but it has its own unique stamp. This is because Metalier is a hand-crafted bespoke finish. Every person who creates a finish will put their own stamp on it. This means that the number of finishes is truly immense. It also means that if a sample is to be created for a job, the the person who is going to do the job should create the sample. What it means for our delighted Metalier customers is that they can be confident that no one will have a metal effect that looks exactly like anyone else’s.
