MOLDING | CROWN MOLDING | LARGE MOLDING | LARGE CROWN MOLDING

Where did the idea of molding originate?

While moldings have been used in mansions and buildings today, and a thousand years ago, and two thousand years ago, they take root at the acropolis—which is thought of as the holy grail and the beginnings of architectural embellishments and details. It first started out as the Frieze that is located which is located right below the Cornice and is part of the overall Entablature.

Throughout time, the molding has become more and more elaborate, which is beautifully portrayed in the Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the Greater London. It has incredibly elaborate architectural details and really detailed deep relief moldings. It is beautifully done and they are made with intense detail in the particular repetition that is made in the design. While most modern homes do not feature such elaborate moldings as the Strawberry Hill House or Louis the XIV's Versailles palace, they still bring beauty and definition to any interior and bring a touch of elegance to your life.

Why bother with installing molding in your home?

While the geometric quality of the walls and the ceiling has some sort of a natural definition, but the molding, trim and architectural details give the room a whole new look. You can easily choose to make some of the lines more noticeable by accentuating them with molding. Molding can also bring out shapes that are not easily noticeable within the architecture of the building or that has not existed before.

Molding is the best and the least invasive way to dramatically alter your environment. Molding is something that is suitable for any sort of styled homes. Molding is also a great way to introduce different and new types of style into your overall design; you can add a dash of elegance and classic lines with elaborate and whimsical designs to a more modern room. Or add a simple molding just to give simple lines just as an underscore to the room.

How do I know which one is right for me?

You have to first think of the size of the molding that you will need. It really depends of your ceiling height because no one wants their room to look more cramped if the ceilings look lower. For ceilings that are already rather low, the molding has to be rather thin as to not completely take over the overall aesthetic of the design.

If the ceilings are high, then the molding has to be larger as to not get lost in the design and the size of the room. Once you have the average size squared away, then you are ready to move on to the next step. It is usually nice to narrow your field of view of a few possible styles of molding that could suit your room. You can always go with the flow of your design or add a little something extra to spin it in a new direction. There are also numerous ways and colors that you could use to glaze it or color the molding before you install it.
