In architecture, as in fashion, accessories cinch the look. Consider the latest incarnations of Niki, a seductively streamlined collection of door and cabinet knobs from Melbourne-based hardware company Designer Doorware. The solid brass disks, ranging in diameter from 50 to 70 millimetres, offer oomph and variety in equal measure.

Among the options available are flat or concave faces and circles with stepped, grooved perimeters. Half-moon pulls round out the line, which comes in a host of standard and special finishes, from a powder-coated satin white and hard-wearing gunmetal black (both shown) to an unlacquered polished brass. Whatever the final combo, though, one thing is certain: Pulling off instant room style couldn’t be easier.
