• Contemporary Cornice or Crown Moulding
Crown moulding with sharp lines and edges and without any fussy detailing is excellent for finishing off around the ceiling of a room and brings crisp, clean lines into focus rather than blurred lines between the walls and ceiling.
Clean lines around a room draw the eye upwards and give the illusion of more height in a room which makes crown moulding perfect for rooms with a low ceiling.
Finish off any room in a home with polystyrene or polyurethane crown moulding.

• Classic Cornice or Crown Moulding
Slightly more ornate than contemporary crown moulding, this style is perfect for a period room or traditional style home. While it still offers crisp, clean lines, it also brings architectural detail into a room that lacks interest.

Easy to install, you can bring crown moulding into the home as a do-it-yourself project without the additional expense of hiring a contractor to install it for you.
