Have you ever walked into a professional-designed home and been blown away at its beauty? The designer likely carefully planned the interior finishes, such as crown moldings and interior doors. While trim and doors have a major impact on interior décor, few homeowners select them with the same care as their furnishings or paint.

Interior finishings are decorative products that enhance the design of your home. These include trim, interior door, wall treatments, ceiling treatments, mantels, chair rails and ceiling treatments. They all have a significant impact on the design of a space. These products are essential to a room’s interior design. This is why you will often see them used in TV series and movies. The sets are meticulously designed using trim and doors, setting the stage for dramatic stories. For example, it’s nearly impossible to imagine. “The Great Gatsby”Or “Sex and the City”Filmed with no walls behind them. Designers are well aware that trim and doors create the home’s character.

These architectural elements can not only make a space look professional but also add character and function. The interior finishings can make walls appear taller, conceal seams between walls and windows, and hide flaws. They can be included in plans as early as possible to save money. You don’t need as many accessories or furniture if you have rich finishes on ceilings, walls, and doors.

But, it was difficult for builders, homeowners, and designers to find the right interior finishes in the past. This is until recently.

“Gone are the days of rummaging through a chaotic selection of trim and doors,”Jan Rutgers was the designer of Metrie(www.metrie.com) unique Then & Now Finishing Collections.

Finally, add personal touches like stains, paints or finishes for a cohesive, professional look and feel. In other words, finish before you start,” says Rutgers.
