Different Rooms Want Different Crown Molding!
Like a frame around a beautiful work of art, crown molding is the border of a room that ties the rest of a space together. Sure, there are many aspects that go into making a room pop, like extravagant cabinets or furniture, but many know that going the extra mile and having custom crown molding designed and installed in a home is what can make a room go from good to GREAT. In our last post we showed you some of the different styles of crown molding and how they can accentuate a room. In a moment we’ll look at how crown molding in a kitchen should differ from a game room!An Interesting History of Crown Molding
The idea of crown molding actually started with the Romans at the acropolis! Since then it has been used as a tool to increase the elegance of a home or building, and make any room come to life. You see, it acts as a border around the room, because it is placed where the ceiling and walls of a room are joined, and because the colors and styles of crown molding can vary – it can be used to mix and match with colors and designs of the furniture, flooring, and cabinets of a living space.
