Crown molding is the decorative feature you will notice around the upper edge of walls in a room, which covers the joint between wall and ceiling. This is a great addition to rooms if you want to create a feeling of grandeur, luxury, and architectural elegance.
The size of crown molding you should use in a room willdepend on the height of the walls, and the totalroom size, along with the atmosphere you want to generate in that room。
冠成型太寬，可以讓房間看起來矮化，並將在空間中產生奇數比例。同樣，太窄的皇冠成型可以在一個大房間或高高的天花板的房間內微薄和非原始，並且可以造成不令人滿意的印象。
在這裏，我們將在各種房間中查看適當的皇冠成型different ceiling heights幫助您實現平衡和合適的比例。
找到以下簡單的答案。
- 對於高度為8英寸的天花板高度，皇冠成型尺寸在2.5和6之間。
- 對於高度為8至9英寸的天花板，冠成型的尺寸應為3英寸至7.5英寸
- 對於10英寸且高於高度的天花板，皇冠成型尺寸應分別為一間休閑室的4-24英寸，並分別為正式房間為7.5至24英寸。

Eight Foot Ceilings
The standard ceiling height in most residential properties is eight feet. If your room has a ceiling height of eight feet or less, then you will want to install a narrow crown molding so that it remains in proportion with the height of the walls. The size range for crown molding on walls of eight feet high is兩個半英寸到六英寸。
房間的平方英尺和房間的形式將幫助您決定您的皇冠成型是否應朝向該範圍的較低或高端。一個大型房間將非常適合較寬的皇冠成型，而較小的房間可能會被它所淹沒。考慮房間的目的和你想要引出的感覺。一間盛大的用餐室將受益於冠軍塑造範圍內的皇冠成型，以使其成為一種更豪華的感覺，而休閑的起居室可能更適合更薄，更微妙的皇冠模塑。
Nine Foot Ceilings
高度九英尺高的高度高度的客房應有皇冠成型，適用於哪種範圍寬度三英寸和七英寸和半英寸之間。再一次，房間大小和你想要實現的形式水平會影響你傾向於朝向的尺度的哪個結束。在正式設置中，您還可以添加圖像模塑以構建皇冠成型層，從而產生簷口。
定製或非標準房屋的一些天花板將在九到十英尺之間具有天花板高度。在這種情況下，您應該將天花板的高度圍繞到最近的腳，但將其保持在規模的一端。例如，如果您的天花板高度為9英尺，請繞過這一數字到九英尺，保持在三到七個半英寸範圍內，為您的成型，但隨著天花板超過九英尺，您應該轉向朝向該範圍的較高端，選擇胎冠成型，比三英寸更靠近七個半英寸。
The reverse would be true if the ceiling measured closer to ten feet. In that case, round up to ten feet and stick to the lower end of the width range recommended for that ceiling height.
Ten Foot Ceilings
如果房間有10英尺或更長時間的天花板高度，那麼它將需要皇冠成型寬度為4英寸，最大寬度為24英寸。房間的大小是一個不太重要的決定因素，用於選擇具有非常高天花板的房間的皇冠成型，因為牆壁的高度使得它們可以承受非常寬的模塑而不看出比例。房間的目的和使用是更重要的考慮因素。
For informal spaces with very tall ceilings, the crown molding should be a minimum of four inches, while for more formal rooms, it would need to be at least nine inches wide to make an impact. In a room where you really want to make a dramatic statement of opulence and splendor, for example, in a ballroom or formal living room, then crown molding and picture molding are used together to create a maximum width of 24 inches would be appropriate.
Why You Should Have Crown Molding
Crown molding comes in various profiles, from elaborately detailed designs to plain or flat designs. The style you choose should be in keeping with the interior decor style of your room and the overall style of your property. Traditional homes or houses with an old, antique style will be best suited to more ornate profiles, while more modern homes look best with simple crown molding. Some minimalist-style homes may prefer not to have crown molding at all.
定製的皇冠造型可以匹配原始crown molding, which exists in other rooms in your home if you want to restore your property to its former glory. This type of crown molding will be made from plaster. Standard crown molding, which you can buy in lengths from DIY stores, will be made from solid wood, fiberboard, or polyurethane. It can be nailed or glued to the wall and ceiling and painted in a color of your choice.
The benefit of crown molding is that it adds architectural style to a room and can adjust the entire tone of the space. Crown molding also offers a practical solution to hide the joins between a wall and ceiling. If you have a white ceiling and have painted your walls in a bright or dark color, then it is likely you have some imperfections around the ceiling where your paintbrush smeared paint where it wasn’t supposed to go, or paint seeped through your decorator’s tape.
