Ceiling details/ Crown Molding

3 years ago

Hello,
We are building a new home with two story living room with floor to ceiling windows and the living room is open to the kicthen (10ft ceiling). How would you go about ceiling details? Do a simple trim or is that too close to the windows trim? Also, would it look weird to have a trim in an open space with different ceiling heights? Would appreciate your thoughts!

It depends upon the design of the house. Ask the person that designed the house.

I had a similar house built in 1999. We didn't do any trim at the 20 foot ceiling. There is really no answer that is reasonable to your question except to say that it is not weird to have crown with different ceiling heights.

The fact that you don't use the term "crown" suggests that you might not be knowledgeable enough to get a good answer on an internet forum. Typically crown is a bit thicker than window/door casing but it depends on the style of the house which we have no info about - which is why Mark gave the answer he did....

Is the house modern style or more traditional?
