Skirting and architrave not matching

Michelle
vor 8 Jahren

i know its not the "done thing" but do you think oak doors and architraves will look OK with white skirting boards, in a new build. I prefer white skirtings and hubby prefers oak architraves, and this is a compromise that both of us thinks looks OK in the picture, but not sure how it will look in real life!

    I think it works because the skirting is a similar colour to the wall. You could in fact paint the skirting the wall colour which should trick your eye into thinking the ceiling is higher.

      It look stunning, you are more drawn to the beautiful wood without the wooden skirting. Great idea ( must remember it! )

      thanks, that's reassuring. I have found some more examples (there isn't many) and I think it works.

      Hi Michelle , go on our web-site http://www.longdendoors.co.uk/ lots of images that might help. I think its a good idea having white skirting, as it makes the Door Set and Staircase stand out.

      If you are using solid polished hardwoods always best that the same supplier supplies all i.e. the doors, the frames, the skirting and architraves. We have the solutions for you @ Longden Doors.

      In principle there is nothing wrong with the white skirting and the oak door dn architraves and as my colleagues have said the skirting say calm and the focus is on the doors BUT I would consider using a bigger skirting painted white.......the one in the photo looks a bit mean and modern. Double the height give it a bit of moulding detail and it will fit in perfectly with the doors.......at the moment it doesn't look right. Good luck

      We were thinking 4" oak around the door and 6" white skirting

      Did you complete this project? I would be interested to see any images as we are currently considering the same thing!

      I'd love to see the result of this I'm considering the same option at the moment.
