Breegan Jane Knows Exactly What It Means To Go Bold And Shares Just How To Pull It Off
Known for her signature style that mixes modern and approachable elements with a luxury touch, Breegan Jane has made a name for herself in the world of interior design. The designer creates interiors that seamlessly mix bold glamor, natural influences, and inviting comforts of home. As such, it should come as no surprise that the designer's California home showcases her signature style, complete with a classic and modern black-and-white color palette. "The black, white, and gold accents are elegant and comforting every time I walk into the space," Jane says (via HGTV).
It's not only the color scheme that makes her home bold and glamorous. The materials she uses make a statement. The primary bathroom features a gorgeous marble backdrop behind an elegant white soaking tub. Throughout the home, metallic finishes also provide bold details that stand out from the otherwise neutral color palette. "One of my best tricks for infusing a space with a little grandeur is to design with brass," Breegan Jane writes on her blog. Kitchen cabinet drawer pulls and knobs, the gold range hood, and gold accent furniture are only a few of the small details that take center stage.
Go bold with brass and gold
Most of the stunning designs created by Breegan Jane are sure to have brass and gold details. "I have long loved using brass in my interior design projects because it perfectly complements my 'modern approachable luxury' design style," Jane explains on her blog. "With its warm golden hue and various levels of sheen, brass has a versatility that is unmatched! It works well with home goods constructed of wood, stone, lucite, and even other metals." In the bathroom, she often incorporates these finishes through faucets and showerheads. Lighting fixtures throughout the home are also a great way to infuse bold details.
Pairing brass and gold with timeless neutrals is Breegan Jane's go-to technique. "Simply put, neutrals and metallics will stand the test of time," the interior designer explains in another blog post. However, you need the right color combinations to make neutrals feel bold. Black hues against gold hardware can achieve a modern sleekness. But other colors like dark blue or deep green can achieve the same effect.
Natural materials such as stone and wood also bring richness to any room. Make these features stand out by opting for statement stone fixtures that add texture or unique colors. A stone slab wall might not be in everyone's budget, but smaller doses, such as coffee tables or vases, can also bring in that natural luxury.
