Ways to Enhance Your Kitchen with Architectural Moulding
Are you searching for ways to improve the aesthetic of your kitchen or add add new life to its design? If so, then you might want to consider using coving. Also known as architectural moulding, these elements can be used to beautify your kitchen in new and exciting ways.
Add Texture To The Ceiling
You can use standard coving to add more texture to the ceiling. Rather than a plain and boring ceiling, architectural mouldings provide a fresh element that ensures the ceiling stands out and looks fantastic. It can catch the eye and you can select the type to match the chosen style of your kitchen. As such, it will blend into a kitchen design beautifully. It can also look like an organic part of the build.
You can choose the shape and specific design that you want. With so many different options available you can use architectural mouldings to make your room stand out.
Lighting
Coving can also be added around the ceiling of your kitchen to enhance the lighting of the room. With mid light mouldings, it is possible to hide the source of lights in the mouldings, while providing a beautiful glow around the edge of the room. This can create a unique feature that makes your kitchen look more elegant and contemporary. The light effect provided here is subtle but can have a great impact on the overall design of your kitchen space.
Alternatively, mouldings can be used with other lighting options such as spotlights which can be included as part of the coving, lighting the edges of the room.
Complete A Room
Without architectural mouldings, the area where the walls and ceiling meet can look a little bare and unfinished. Coving is such a popular choice these days that rooms without it, don't look quite right. With coving, you can add the finishing touches to your room design.
Match Any Style
You might think that architectural mouldings are only suitable for certain types of kitchen designs. On the contrary, coving will fit any type of design that you want and look fantastic. This includes Victorian, art deco, contemporary, Edwardian and many others. Regardless of what type of style you're opting for in your kitchen, coving is sure to add to it.
*Alter The Perception8
Finally, using coving may also alter the perception of the room. Once you add architectural mouldings to the ceiling of your kitchen, you will notice that the ceiling looks higher. This is a great choice if you are keen to make your kitchen seem larger or more spacious.
