Claudio Ortiz Design Group, Inc. Well, where do I start! Let me see, America clay is probably fine if the colors and application are done just right. I have not seen your final work so it's hard for me to judge. The safer route is the latter of your choices. I would try to go for a smooth finish knowing that you will have a bigger market wanting that particular look on the walls. Regarding the sharp corners, they are not difficult to replace except that it can be time consuming specially if you do not have too much practice at it. However, not knowing the architectural style of your home, again it's hard for me to recommend for you to remove the sharp corners. It you have a modern architectural style home with clean lines, then the sharp corners will probably be in keeping with the architecture. I hope this help!

Wishing you the best!

Charmean Neithart Interiors, LLC. Yes, I have to agree with Mint and Smith. I've seen such a paint split on rounded corners. Even done really well, it's not ideal. There are a lot of ways to bring color in to make a space feel different, like art, rugs, textiles.

Matt Patterson Custom Homes Shadows will usually give depth on perpendicular surfaces. At any rate, with bullnose drywall corners it is usually very easy to cut a strait line with a foam roller depending on texture...the smoother the easier. I do it frequently.

bepsf You should work with an architect or designer to give you specific ideas that are suitable for your needs, your budget and the way your existing home is built - Without alot more info, we can't be of much help.

Bud Dietrich, AIA I really like split level homes. The separations are terrific and there's so much you can do with them. The photo is of a typical split where we removed all of the walls on the main level to open it up.

As bepsf says, hire a good local architect to help you with this.
