One of the ways to make a room look substantially richer is to install moldings that are larger (wider / thicker). Two and three part, 'stacked' moldings can accomplish this even more so. We've done this work (and seen the results) innumerable times and almost invariably the client is surprised with just how much better / more 'grand' the room looks. It is especially rewarding in those places that will be seen by guests (the foyer, living room, dining room, entertainment room, kitchen). As well, the addition of details like arched passageways, corbels, wainscot and coffered ceilings accomplish this same improvement in quality (both esthetically AND for the actual value of the home). We perform this work with the craftsmanship you'd expect of furniture makers.
Please take a look at some of our samples below to see what I mean.
