Skirting Boards
Skirting boards are an essential part of any interior design project. They are the finishing touch that can make a room look complete and polished. Skirting boards are installed at the base of walls where they meet the floor.
Primarily, skirting boards protect walls from damage. Without skirting boards, the wall is vulnerable to scratches, dents and scuffs from furniture, vacuum cleaners and other household items. Skirting boards act as a barrier, preventing these items from coming into direct contact with the wall.
Another skirting board advantage is they can hide unsightly gap areas between the wall and the floor. These gaps can occur due to uneven flooring or walls that are not perfectly straight. Skirting boards are used to cover up these gaps, creating a seamless transition between the wall and the floor.
Architrave
Architrave is a decorative element that is commonly used in architecture. It is a horizontal beam that is placed above a door or window, and it serves as a support for the structure above it. They are often decorated with intricate designs and patterns, which can add a touch of elegance and sophistication.
A key factor in installing a window or door architrave is that they help to protect the structure of a building. By providing support for the structure above a door or window, architraves can help to distribute the weight of the building more evenly. This helps prevent damage to the walls and other areas over time.
Architraves improve the aesthetics of a space too. They are designed in a variety of styles and patterns, which help create unique and visually appealing designs.
Window Boards
Adding medium-density fibreboard (MDF) window boards can help insulate your space and reduce drafts. Also known as a window sill board, it creates an extra barrier between the inside and outside, trapping air in between the window and the board.
The variety of MDF edge profiles for window boards allows for diverse interiors. Square MDF window boards have a basic flat edge for a simple design. The straight profile delivers an understated, modern look. Chamfered MDF window boards have bevelled edges trimmed at an angle. This slanted shape adds a subtle dimension and they cast shadows for added visual interest.
Edge MDF window boards feature a recessed channel bordering the panel. The thin indentation outlines the board’s edge. This detailing creates a subtle separation between the window and the board. Bullnose MDF window boards have a rounded, protruding profile that extends past the panel face. Also, round MDF window boards completely contour the panel edges. The full rounded shape creates a soft and fluid profile.
Wall Panelling
MDF wall panelling comes with various shaker profiles that create different looks. Single step shaker MDF has a simple, rectangular frame around the panel. This clean style works well for minimalist designs. With scotia shaker wall panels, they feature a contoured concave shape on the inner edge. This rounded detail softens the design and casts subtle shadows. Scotia shaker adds understated interest without overpowering a room.
Edge shaker MDF contains a narrow recessed channel on the panel’s border. The slim indentation outlines each panel for a more defined look. It offers a delicate delineation between panels. A square shaker wall panel provides the most basic shaker profile. The flat, right-angle edges offer an unadorned framing effect. A bullnose shaker wall panel has rounded, protruding edges extending beyond the panel face. Its curved profile makes a bold statement and strong visual impact.
Dado Rail
Installing a dado rail offers protection for walls that goes beyond just décor. Dado rails consist of a strip of moulding installed horizontally about 1 metre up from the floor. Rails can prevent walls from getting damaged, especially in high-traffic areas like a hallway.
A main benefit is shielding the lower half of the walls from scuffs and scrapes. The protruding moulding takes the impact rather than the wall surface itself. They save walls around furniture, tight corners and high-movement spaces. Dado rails also create a clear visual boundary on walls. This can be useful for 2-tone painted walls, wallpaper or wainscoting.
In addition to protecting walls and enhancing décor, dado rails add architectural interest. The moulding contours make a sculptural statement compared to blank drywall. Dado rails come in varied styles, from minimalist to ornate. This allows for rail designs suited to rustic, modern, transitional or traditional interiors.
