Tapware: chrome, brushed nickle or black?

We selected 3 tapware options for our build: black for kitchen, brushed nickle for master ensuite, chrome for the rest of the house. Should we consolidate to just one tapware throughout the entire house? Thoughts/suggestions? Which tapware works better: chrome, brushed nickle or black?

    What are your door and cabinet handles in each room?

    all internal door handles are chrome. cabinet handles are black in kitchen and master ens. Other bathrooms: no handles.

    Brushed nickel is lovely and subtle, black will give a more impact. Don't be afraid to mix metals I think brushed nickel and black go well together.

    Thanks Lauren. Is it better to use the same tapware throughout the entire house?

    Depends, statement fittings are a nice idea, I wouldn't shy away from brushed nickel in the kitchen and bronze in the bathroom as long as there was cohesion with the colour palette.
