TIP
Architectural details are often an "ensemble cast." Consider combinations of details to achieve your overall vision.

Architectural Details

You can personalize your home with architectural details. These are the fixed elements in a home that allow individuals to personalize their space. Most people don't even know they exist, but they know the impact they make. It's the "A-ha!" factor.

commons-remodeling-boston-nicheDesigned details are built into the house, and stay with it always. They could be a built-in kitchen banquette or a floor that moves from slate to wood slowly, with a few slate tiles embedded into the wood floor as a transition. Or in a bathroom, it could be mirroring the entire wall down the sink countertop to give the illusion of more space.

Architects and designers walk a fine line in suggesting interior and exterior architectural details to their clients because of budgetary questions. In the end however, this is the stuff that will make the house feel like home. Additionally, these are the elements that can actually amplify a particular architectural style or era, Victorian, Georgian, or Colonial for example.

Here are a few examples of classic and modern architectural details.  

  • Wall Niches
  • Ceiling Medallions
  • Brackets & Corbels
  • Ceiling Domes
  • Mantel Ornaments
  • Gable Ornaments
  • Stair Brackets
  • Mouldings
  • Rosettes
  • Keystones
  • Tin-look ceiling or wall panels
  • Brushed aluminum trim
  • Floating staircase
  • Stainless steel or copper wall panels
  • Wall-mounted waterfalls
  • Frosted glass or glass-block features
  • More

Obviously, many other elements, both modern and traditional can be added or modified inside and outside your home. If you are working with an architect or designer, invite Commons Remodeling to be part of the conversation.
