Its been "in" for a while but we still have a thing for copper. It has been around forever used mainly for practical purposes including plumbing pipes and fittings, electrical parts and architecturally for items such as roof caps on cathedral spires. Now designers are being a bit more creative and cutting edge with their use of copper and rather than being hidden away and out of sight it is now a design feature. We are seeing it wrapped around buildings, used in flooring and staircases, in kitchens and bars, for lighting and the list goes on......... A lot or a little, it makes for a striking interior and exterior feature and exudes such warmth with its natural colouring.

Have a look at the photos below for some great design ideas for copper.
