There’s a reason we had the moldings for this nursery shipped in from New Jersey.
We chose Federal-style profiles from Kuiken Brothers for their attention to historically accurate millwork. The shape of a molding matters: crisp edges, defined curves, and deep relief control how it catches light, casts shadows and visually defines openings and borders. With the walls and trim in the same rich color, those shadow lines give the room its depth.
The profiles also need to work together. The scale of the crown, the weight of the door and window casings, and the spacing of the wall panels all contribute to a balanced composition.
That attention extended to the finish. We used a Centurion industrial water based wood coating to give the millwork the smooth surface and refined sheen you’d expect from premium cabinetry.
