Cabinet Knob&Pulls Which One Is Better?

Degol:Cabinet Knob&Pulls Which One Is Better?

The first stop on our mission to determine who wins the knobs vs. pulls debate? Your interior design style. So first, ask yourself, “What is my design style? Traditional? Contemporary? Mid-century modern?” You may be surprised to find out that different design styles can affect your decision.

You can notice a mix of knobs and pulls, with knobs being affixed to the upper and lower cabinets and the drawers featuring pulls. The raised panel cabinet doors are simple and traditional. However, the ultramodern gold knobs and pulls bring a fresh, contemporary feel to the space.

Contrast the transitional design with this classic Tuscan kitchen. You may notice that there’s not a single knob in sight. While the cabinets feature very similar raised panel doors as that of the transitional kitchen, the elegant pulls maintain a traditional aesthetic.

Overall, to cut a long story short, contemporary and modern cabinets work in harmony with simple knobs and pulls. You can also mix and match them to create a complementary look, like the transition kitchen. Traditional-style spaces demand much more intricate hardware, making pulls the more common selection.
