The elegance of crown molding.

Custom Crown Molding Install in Bedstuy 

 Almost anything with “crown” in its name connotes sophistication, refinement, even royalty. And crown molding is no exception. When you want to dress up a room on a budget, crown molding is one fine way to accomplish it. The ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans all embraced crown molding in architecture, and it was a symbol of wealth and status. Interior crown molding, whether plain or elaborate, hides the seam between ceiling and wall while adding an elegant component to the overall décor.

We were excited to add character to this Bedstuy brownstone with both crown molding and window trim molding. Prep is always our first order of business, covering floors and furnishings as necessary. Once measured, well, twice measured, we cut and install, then fill all nail holes and caulk any gaps. Here we painted the walls in Wickham white while the trim got a semi-gloss coat for a light sheen. The room is still the same dimensions, and the interior style has been subtly enhanced with the vintage chic touch of crown molding and window trim.

 

 

Boring without crown molding.

Painting Brooklyn Brownstone For Rent

Renting property is challenging for landlords and owners. The price has to be right for the neighborhood and the specific home, and one needs to consider leases, background checks and references. For showing, every room should be clean and neat, even if there is furniture in there. Walls, floors and appliances especially stand out in unfurnished space, and this property manager for a Prospect Heights brownstone understood completely the value in having fresh paint everywhere.

 Clean, attractive, neutral paint showcases every space in a rental property. It allows prospective tenants to visualize their furnishings, wall art, color scheme and rugs in a new place. So our Paintworks team went right to work freshening this historical brownstone in the charming Prospect Hill area, known for Prospect Park, century-old architecture, public libraries and museums. We like to think the fresh paint throughout this brownstone will seal the deal for new tenants, who likely will also embrace the family-friendly environment and folksy vibes of the neighborhood.

Brooklyn Condo Painting

The Fort Greene neighborhood in Brooklyn is revered for it tree-lined streets of brownstones in excellent condition, preserving treasured architecture and heritage. Factor in the 30-acre Fort Greene Park, once the site of a bonafide fort used in the Revolutionary War, the Brooklyn Academy of Music and a charming assortment of eateries and shops, and you have one very appealing, family-friendly, diversified segment of the Big Apple. It’s here that we were asked to totally brighten and lighten one condo’s artistic, main living space.

 White Paint Showcases Art

Decorator’s White, one of the Designer Classics Collection from Benjamin Moore, was selected for its enduring qualities of reverence, humility and peace. White reflects light to make spaces appear and feel larger. It also stands silently in any room to showcase art, furnishings and decorative accents. This condo exudes a warmly modern aura with  an incredibly streamlined harmony for its white, crisp, clean walls and tasteful furnishings.
