Bronze Ceiling Light Fixture: Color-Coordinate A Room


by DoItYourself Staff

A bronze ceiling light fixture can bring different elements of a room together through the use of uniquely colored metal. The bronze itself may tie into furniture, metal accents or doorknobs. The color can complement wall paint, furniture upholstery, carpeting and artwork.

Bronze looks great with some specific color palettes. If designing a room around a pre-existing bronze light fixture, consider bold 'Mardi Gras' colors like purple and teal.

The brown spectrum, ranging from light tan to deep brown, also works well with bronze. For this reason, consider real hardwood or laminates in varying shades to complement your fixture. Keep furniture and linens neutral or with small colorful accents.

Depending on which room your bronze light is in, coordinate other accessories or appliances to match. Many manufacturers offer bronze faucets, sink bowls and other appliances. In the kitchen, consider bronze or bronze-finished accessories like a trash can, soap dispenser orfruit bowl. Buy bronze towel rack and matching soap dishes for bathrooms.
