Whether you’re building, renovating or just giving tired cabinets a refresh, Architectural Hardware is an important element to consider. If you're unfamiliar with the term, it relates to hardware elements used in the building, architectural, and design industries, such as hinges, locks, knobs and handles. For today's post I'm focusing on the interior hardware elements including door and draw handles for cabinetry in the kitchen, bathroom and wardrobes. Small but impactful details, choosing the right hardware can really elevate the interior of your home. To demonstrate, I've chosen two standout brands that are offering inspiring solutions to suit both classic and contemporary style residential projects.
The Brandt
A recent discovery when I featured this gorgeous kitchen project last week, The Brandt specialises in luxurious hardware and door handles exquisitely crafted in a range of finishes and materials. Merging raw beauty with a refined and contemporary edge, The Brandt creates a look that is understated, elegant and inviting. Here are some beautiful examples from their collection.

Specialising in a bespoke look, The Brandt offers a wide range of styles, surfaces and materials, from an elegant composition of horn and brass, a modern urban expression in nickel and wenge, to the Nordic traditional style in oak. This makes it possible to mix and match the various fittings to create a truly personal touch for your kitchen, wardrobe, bathroom, doors and furniture – old and new. In addition to Pull Bars, the collection includes knobs, hooks, door handles and bathroom and kitchen accessories.
The Brandt was founded by Julie Brandt, who together with her team of architects and interior designers offer an interior consultancy BRANDT Collective. The projects featured above are part of their impressive portfolio which includes custom designed solutions for private and commercial clients. Representing renowned international interior and design brands, these work beautifully alongside BRANDT Collective’s own collection of hardware, furniture, lighting and objects.
Linear Standard
Frustrated with the lack of options in small architecture and interior hardware, Melbourne based Cassie James-Herrick of CJH Studio and husband Shaun Herrick took matters into their own hands and founded Linear Standard. With a refined and minimalist collection of architectural and interior wares, from cabinetry handles and hooks, to a new bathroom hardware range designed in house, the offering also includes small bespoke wares designed and made by the founders exclusively for Linear Standard in Melbourne. Here are some of my favourite designs.
