Wall Moldings
Creative Wall Design with Moldings:
Give Your Space Character!
Are you looking for an easy and stylish way to breathe new life into your walls? Then wall moldings are just what you need! They are not only super versatile but also a fantastic way to add a touch of elegance and structure to your home. Here are a few ideas that we have used in recent projects! We usually work with Orac wall moldings in our projects, but from DIY store to high end it works the same with all wall moldings!
Why Wall Moldings?
Wall moldings are the secret weapon of interior designers. They’re affordable, easy to install, and offer endless design possibilities. Whether you prefer a classic, modern, or rustic style – moldings can add that special touch to any room.
Picture Frame Effect
Create “frames” directly on your wall using moldings. It looks like a gallery without having to hang a single picture. Simply install the moldings in the desired shape, and voilà – an eye-catcher! Or you can create more width and height in a small room by attaching the wall moldings as large-format frames.
Ceiling Design & Built-Ins
Why not look up? Moldings on the ceiling create an impressive sense of space and make the room feel higher and more spacious. A particularly chic trick: an all-round strip that conceals the built-in units with Pax wardrobes and integrates the curtain strip at the same time.
Geometric & Linear Patterns
Let your creativity run wild and create geometric or linear patterns on your walls. Whether it’s triangles, zigzags or lines– with moldings, your wall becomes a work of art. This method is perfect for creative workspaces or living rooms.
How to do It
Don’t worry, you don’t have to be a pro to install moldings. Here’s a quick guide:
- Measure & Mark: First, plan your design and lightly draw it on the wall with a pencil.
- Cut: Cut the moldings to the desired length. A miter saw helps with angled cuts.
- Attach: Use strong construction adhesive to stick the moldings to the wall. For heavier moldings, you can also use small nails for extra support.
- Paint: Once the adhesive is dry, you can paint the moldings as you like. For a unified look, paint the wall and moldings the same color.
Conclusion
With wall moldings, you can let your creativity flow and give your home a personal touch. They are the great solution to transform plain walls into real highlights – all without much effort. So, what are you waiting for? Grab some moldings, a bit of paint, and get started!
