Metal Might Be for You.

Metal baking racks are characterized as having more simple lines and no fuss.  They can come with the standard flat black contemporary finish, or they can be shiny mirror chrome or soft satin chrome.  Metal racks are designed with an eye toward using the negative space to create a clean and orderly appearance.  As always, less is more.  Generally this style of rack is used almost entirely for decorative purposes. Contemporary designers never display large collections or things that clutter up the kitchen and make it look too disorderly.  A workable design idea is to keep no more than 1-3 items on a single shelf.

Shabby Or Chic?

One popular decorative style of the 21st Century is called shabby chic.  It's best defined for combining vintage pieces with modern elements as in doilies and fresh flowers.  Contrasting design elements and materials combine to create something stylish and very trendy.  A couple of accents here and there can be added that complete the shabby chic look.  These could include scented candles and tea-stained (khaki) dish towels.  Why not throw some overstuffed, floral-printed pillows next to the rack for a truly chic look?
