Trims and Trappings

Let's check in on our full house project under construction. Last time we looked in, the Sheetrock was up, patched and sanded. Now, the finish details are being installed, and this is when the real personality of the home-to-be starts to emerge.

Each and every window, arch and door opening in this house receives a full trim treatment. It takes a lot of board-feet of material for a project this size.

The trim carpenter is excellent, and many hours later, all openings are covered in their several layers of trim.

The crown moldings are also in. Here you can see how beautifully the crown mold ties in to the arch trim, creating a deep, rich detail surrounding the kitchen and breakfast nook.

And here is the view the client will have from their kitchen, through the family room, all the way into the foyer and front door.

Bright, sunny and cheerful!

Paint samples are going up on the interior and exterior walls, and cabinets are being installed. It won't be long now...a lot will happen fast. Check back. You won't want to miss a detail!
