Ceiling Medallions, Crown Molding, and Ceiling Domes: 3 Ways to Add Elegance and Beauty to Any Room
I want to draw attention to your ceiling. Take a look at it.
Ceilings are an often neglected area of the room when it comes
time to redecorate (or repair). There are so many things that
you can do too, that are inexpensive, yet provide the simple
elegance that speaks to your style. Choose decorative ceiling
medallions, crown molding, ceiling domes, rosettes, or panel
molding, just to name a few. Three of my favorite ways to accent
a ceiling: ceiling medallions, ceiling domes, and crown molding.
One of the easiest and least time-consuming projects is the
installation of a ceiling medallion. Although in the past they
were made from plaster, today these decorative ornaments are
made of lightweight polyurethane foam. This makes them much
easier to handle. Ceiling medallions are used to draw attention
to chandeliers and light fixtures, or to enhance crown molding.
They can also be combined with a rosette and used to decorate an
otherwise plain ceiling. You can use these architectural
ornaments as wall decorations. Use several small ones in the
hallway. Ceiling medallions are versatile and come in many
styles and sizes. They can be painted to match any room. Ceiling
medallions are one of the most popular architectural details.
Ceiling domes are similar to ceiling medallions in that they can
transform any room into a work of art. However, they are
larger
and actually recessed into the ceiling, necessitating that they
be planned for at the time of construction. Ceiling domes
effectively enhance a foyer, dining room, living room, or even
the bathroom.
Crown molding, also referred to as crown moulding, or cornice,
is probably THE most important architectural element used to
define any interior space. Most of today's interior designers
agree that every room benefits from the use of crown molding
treatment. Crown molding smoothes the transition from wall to
ceiling and does much to define the architectural style of a
room. The size and style of crown molding used may vary widely,
from a simple cove in a farmhouse kitchen to a large built-up
cornice in a grand entry.
These are just a few of the architectural designs and accents
you can use to enhance the overall experience of all who enter
into your home. Just don't forget the ceiling!
