"I recently got inspired by a trend on Nuuly, a clothing rental platform, called "The Wrong Jacket." It's all about pairing an unexpected coat choice - whether that's the proportion of the jacket, the color, or its texture - with your outfit (think: an oversized blazer with track pants, for example.) It's kind of the unexpected red theory of the fashion world."
"I love this trend because it's bold without being permanent, and it's relatively budget-friendly to swap out a couple of knobs in your home. I'm starting with my kitchen table and then might move to the cabinets themselves and swap out all of the pulls for something more unexpected than the brushed nickel pieces they came with (still renter-friendly, as long as I store the original hardware to reinstall it when I one day move!)."
"Choosing "the wrong hardware" could be a bona fide design strategy, as many people look to personalize their spaces and make them less cookie-cutter. As the folks at Plank Hardware put it on Instagram, "Go for multiples, go for stacks, go *massive*.""
A fashion trend called "The Wrong Jacket" pairs intentionally mismatched coat choices with outfits to create surprising proportions and textures. The same concept translates to interior hardware by choosing oversized or unexpected knobs and pulls to add personality. Swapping hardware is a relatively inexpensive, low-risk update that can start on a table and extend to cabinets. Storing original hardware preserves renter-friendly reversibility. Examples include large marble knobs and mixed-size pulls to create an off-kilter but curated look, and brass back plates can provide contrast against blue-gray cabinetry.
