Moldings are nothing more than an overhead decorative elements. In most cases, they are used to decorate the walls. In principle, this includes all types of profiled slats or panels and frames, skirting boards, slats and moldings.
In addition to aesthetic features, moldings help to further perfect hide some flaws. For example, they can be unattractive to break the wall surface into several parts or sections of any form. And later they can be painted in different colors or decorate with textured wallpaper, differing in color. It so happens that the need to hide the interior defect and molding perfectly distracting the attention from this flaw.
For example, plastic top molding is resistant to mechanical stress, it also protects the wall from all sorts of injuries. In order to conceal the joints between the ceiling and the wall, used the ceiling moldings, width of which may vary.
The width of moldings usually depends on the height of the ceiling. The higher ceiling in the room, the larger must be the ceiling moldings. Its shape may be the most diverse: straight, convex, concave. Often applied flexible moldings or decorative plastic moldings.

There is still demand the installation of window casings. It began many centuries ago, when there was a tendency to decorate windows with curved architraves. Today there is a different approach in the field of decorating the window – it is decorated indoors and not outdoors. Moreover, the molding must be fully consistent with the style and texture. For example, if the window is plastic, the molding must also be made of plastic.
Also, do not install a wide moldings on the premises, even if a large area, but with a low ceiling. But bright moldings in conjunction with a white ceiling, on the contrary, a great choice for the low room.
