Handles– I Guess They Do Matter… Well At Least To Me!

Nov 5, 2010

One of the first fixtures I notice when I’m in someone’s house is their door handles. Obviously I am not really familiar with the names like a Schlage door handle, but I think they do make an expression. I find that for the most part I’m not a huge fan of gold door handles– but then again, I’m not really a fan of gold. If I had to choose between gold or silver, I’d go with silver and if I do have to choose gold it’s usually a white gold.

As far as fixtures go, the next thing I notice when I’m in someone’s house or just house hunting are the type of fixtures used for the bathroom and kitchen. Whether it’s the style of the faucet or the faucet handles, they do tend to catch my eye. I’m not so into gaudy very ornate handles and I find that I enjoy simple and sleek the best. There’s just something about the minimalism in fixtures that speaks to me. Is anyone else like this? Or is this just some odd quirk that I have among the other billions I’ve managed to pick up? Either way, simple, sleek, minimal, and non-gold works best for me. What about you?
