Design Tip: When choosing hardware, balance is key. For larger cabinets or drawers, opt for longer handles or oversized pulls to create a sense of proportion and elegance. Smaller cabinets or drawers benefit from more delicate knobs or shorter pulls to maintain visual harmony. Also, consider the style—sleek, modern hardware complements minimalist cabinetry, while more ornate designs work well with traditional or transitional styles. The right hardware should enhance the overall design without overwhelming.
