6. Build up instead of tearing down. Richly detailed moldings are popular for traditional houses, but condo projects often include them as well to give a home in the sky the same richness and traditional elegance as classic earthbound abodes. However, getting this look isn’t as simple as just tearing down the old, plain molding; the door frames that your condo unit comes with are probably metal and not easy to simply remove. Rather then attempting to replace your door frames, you can look to build them up by adding a “backband,” or a molding meant to layer over an existing frame. This results in deep moldings, which deliver a definite feeling of grandeur. You may not want to stop at just the door frames once you see the effect.

Look closely at the walls. They are covered in a subtle ombre wallpaper that goes from light at the ceiling down to dark at the floor and incorporates different hues from throughout the home. A half-moon console table provides a landing zone for keys, while a mirror provides a spot for last-minute face checks before the homeowners head out the door.
