About the Workhorse Collection by Barrie Benson
Modern Matter’s Workhorse collection has a clean, steady look built for everyday spaces. Barrie Benson created the collection with simple form and practical beauty in mind. The pieces feel classic, but the hand-forged corners give them a more crafted edge.
The collection includes knobs, pulls, and appliance pulls in circle and rectangle shapes. Polished brass and polished nickel bring a brighter finish. Burnished brass adds a warmer tone. Each piece is made from solid brass and finished by hand, which gives the hardware more depth than a flat factory finish. The clean shapes make the collection easy to use across many rooms.
Workhorse hardware works well in kitchens, bars, built-ins, and larger cabinetry runs. It is a strong fit when the hardware needs to feel useful, refined, and quietly substantial. The collection adds structure without making the space feel overly decorated.
