3 Easy Ways to Pick an Excellent Interior Window Trim

Window trim, or casing, refers to the molding that goes around the window frames, adding a lovely finishing touch to them. If you want your windows to stand out better, you should take their casing into account. But this design feature comes in different types: which one would be perfect for your home?

1. Match them to your home’s architectural style: Vintage home styles, including Craftsman, Colonial and Farmhouse, for instance, typically have windows emphasized with a neat and simple trim. Queen Anne homes, with their elaborate architectural details, may come with thicker and ornate window casing. This is the opposite in Contemporary and Modernist homes, which usually feature interior window trim that’s even simpler than that found in vintage homes.

2. Pick a complete window casing: A complete casing is recognizable by its simple layer of molding, which surrounds all four sides of the window. Some complete casings use multiple layers made up of stacked moldings, making your windows look even more charming and decorative. Consult your trusted window expert on how to incorporate this type of interior trim into your units.

3. Make it sleek and simple with a low-profile window trim: If neat and simple is more to your liking, then you should choose a low-profile trim. Unlike other interior casings, this option lays flat against your wall, giving it a finished look while still connecting the windows to your home design. Did you know a low-profile window trim is also a great insulator? It helps prevent drafts from entering your home and, at the same time, keeps heating energy trapped inside.
