Matt (Adonic) Bronze: The Finish Everyone’s Talking About in Clerkenwell — And Why

“Warm, modern, and built to last — Matt Bronze is redefining architectural ironmongery.”
Walk through Clerkenwell today — past design studios, showrooms, and sample libraries — and you’ll notice a quiet shift. The cool, high-shine metallics that once defined modern interiors are giving way to something warmer, softer, and more tactile.
Matt Bronze is leading that change. And in Poole Waite’s London showroom on Goswell Road, the Adonic Matt Bronze Collection is drawing architects, interior designers, and specifiers who want a finish that ticks all the right boxes for now:
A move from “cold modern” to “warm modern” – combining contemporary shapes with a rich, welcoming tone.
Perfect for “quiet luxury” interiors – understated sophistication that whispers quality rather than shouting for attention.
Versatile across styles and sectors – equally at home in heritage refurbishments, boutique hotels, sleek offices, or coastal properties.
Comfort and wellness-driven – soft, non-reflective surfaces that feel calm and inviting in high-touch areas.
Long-lasting and sustainable – applied over marine-grade stainless steel for durability, reduced maintenance, and a lower environmental footprint.
It’s not just a colour or a coating — Matt Bronze reflects the way design thinking is evolving in 2025. Spaces are being built to feel human, to last longer, and to blend beauty with performance.
