Matching Trim & Molding With Various Decorating Styles



Interior trim serves as a foundation for the decorating style of your home. You should choose your trim carefully so it looks both stylish and timeless. Get tips on how to match trim and molding with different decorating styles from a trusted home remodeling contractor

Modern Farmhouse

This home style is known for its toned-down features and clean lines. While you’ll often see modern furniture, it also features rustic components like a farmhouse sink and shiplap paneling. Trim can be flat and painted white to blend with the clean look of this style.

New Traditional

The traditional style is characterized by tall ceilings, expansive moldings and paneled walls. Inspired by formal dining and parlor areas of the 1800s, the new traditional is not as formal as Victorian decor. It utilizes a lot of panel molding to achieve the look of a fully paneled library or den. 

Bohemian

Bohemian style has a diverse aesthetic and a cozy vibe to it. Since it usually has a tinge of old European, traditional trim styles are ideal for Bohemian homes. You can go for mitered door casings, rounded crown molding and tall baseboard. For an eccentric look, get creative with your interior remodeling using panel molding. 

Shabby Chic

Shabby chic style has the right mix of old and new, often featuring antiques and distressed furnishings. It has a more feminine feel, dominated by pastel colors. With the antique look of shabby chic, traditional molding styles with curves and decorative touches complement this style. Instead of thick trim pieces, go for thinner, more delicate ones. 

Country

The high ceilings of country style require large crown molding and baseboard. Lines can be minimal with few ridges and curves. You can choose beadboard paneling for a classic country look. Broad windowsills can house plants and decor or be used as seating. 

Vintage Industrial

Industrial style is all about highlighting building materials like exposed beams, brick and heating ducts. This style often features furniture made from reclaimed wood and functional metal. Panel moldings and flat casings look best in an industrial home. However, if you prefer crown molding and baseboards, make sure they are proportional and have a clean profile.
