Wood is beautiful. Suiting any architecture and decorative style, wood molding can be used throughout the entire house, elevating ordinary rooms to the spectacular. The genial warmth and lustrous personality of wood paneling, wood molding, and other hardwood architectural details (including heavy timber trusses, beams and coffer systems) distinguish your home, making it memorable.
Wood details reveal our personalities as we decorate our homes with wood moldings and other wooden appointments. The detailing makes a room whole – from the crown molding, to the stairs, and the plank floors under our feet – wood transforms a home from the ordinary to the extraordinary. It ties the edges of a room together – creating a decorated transition between walls and floors, and the walls and ceilings.
Certain moldings are suitable to traditional construction, other are more suited to contemporary. However, some homes are more period-architecture specific with moldings expressly appropriate for their architecture. For example, craftsman, Victorian, Georgian, etc. each have their own a style of molding historically used for their construction, and often design purposely for their unique characteristics. These moldings are referred to as historically correct for the style of the home.
However, many of today’s homes are more eclectic, drawing from architectural elements from across architectural periods and mixing together moldings from various home styles. It has become more a matter of personal preference and taste for those not seeking to recreate historically accurate homes.
The reputation for quality and durability speaks for itself. Dollar for dollar no other material matches wood molding’s aesthetic appeal, versatility and practicality. Wood molding is available in a wide range of wood species to match other elements of the wooden room.
Standard and custom wood moldings are available in new and antique, imported and domestic: oak, maple, cherry, ash, hickory, mahogany, cypress, cedar, walnut, heart pine, and many other species in a variety of grades and cuts.
