Rental apartments can very well be decorated with antique Bronze Classic Brass or Liberty hardwares
Make a paradigm shift from the old traditional thinking that why to decorate the rented home.It needs to be decorated because it is not the property owner or manager who is going to live there it’s you.
Change the paint first,then come to flooring by new carpets or a refinish.If this is not possible go for matching agra rugs or persion hand made beautiful rugs. Then go for renovating your kitchen by replacing cheaper hardware like knobs and robe hooks by designer inspired Liberty and antique Bronze Classic Brass hardware.
I am quite sure that your bathroom must also be needing a remodeling,don’t worry there is a way out and that is to replace the ordinary hardware with Amerock hardware.
