When it comes to buying cornice boards, there are several things to consider. In this article, Morflor aims to assure you that all our customers have many choices for baseboards. Therefore, we offer various options so that you can choose the height, thickness, overall length and finish of the work yourself. If you are new to the world of baseboards, the wide selection of options can be overwhelming! The height of the cornice
Morflor experts are often asked what length and height they recommend or what is the standard. In response, we always try to let the customer choose for himself. Because it really depends on the personal taste and aesthetic view of people and it changes from person to person. However, if you need help with this choice, we have listed a few things in this article to help you in your decision making process.
The age of the property you are renovating or redecorating plays a big role in deciding the height of the cornice. This emphasis is due to the size of the property and the height of the ceiling. For example, in older style houses like Shemiranat houses, you will notice that the rooms are very magnificent and the ceilings are high. So you have more wall area to work with. In general, those who have a higher ceiling choose a larger cornice. It all depends on matching the proportions!
Of course, this does not mean that if you do not live in one of the mentioned houses, you cannot choose a higher cornice. However, it is important to note that if your property is modern or new, you will have a shorter roof. If this is the case, you should pay attention to the space limitations in which you work. Be careful not to feel closed or suffocated in the room.
The standard height of the cornice is what customers choose. In general, the standard height of the cornice is about 145 mm. This is an average height size from the ones we suggest, Morflor offers heights from 70 mm to 350 mm.
As mentioned earlier, it all depends on your overall vision. In general, those who want something simple, discreet and small, choose the smaller size of the suggested options. The thing to consider when choosing the right height is the size of the profile.
Regardless of overall height, the next important consideration would be size. Because the size of the profile never changes. So if you want to go for something really small, say 70mm, there’s a 33mm flat piece that makes up the overall height. Consider how much of the flat piece you want on your board and what will look best in your home.
If you’re looking for a taller height and want something to stand out, you should look around 220mm (9 inches) and above. Up to a total height of 350 mm, you are free to look as distinct and bold as your cornice design!
Wooden cornice
If you are looking for a tall cornice and want something different and impressive, Morflor can make it for you with the details you want. Tall plinths are great because they are made exclusively for those who want to achieve a unique style and design. With long plinths, you will have a larger profile section than in the standard plinth design.
Modern cornice
The final thing to consider when choosing a baseboard height is the overall interior design theme of your space. In some styles, the cornice can contribute a lot to the overall design of the room, while in others, this effect is very subtle.
For example, consider minimal interior designs. In this design process, everything is based on simplicity, straight lines and holding objects and devices back. So, if you want to keep this style throughout your home, it’s worth choosing simple and elegant skirting boards. In general, in minimal interior design, it is expected that the cornice is low and discrete as much as possible.
White cornice
On the other hand, some interior designs really have the ability to incorporate cornice profiles and integrate them with other design components and fit into the overall design of the room. Therefore, you will undoubtedly want the cornices to be at a height that will stand out and be seen. In maximal interior design, it’s all about color, distinctiveness, and the expression you display in the room. Therefore, in this design, you often see the cornices with a bold color to match the greatness of the room. If you plan to paint the baseboards, the overall height will help you determine the type, concentration and amount of paint to use.
Combination of color with cornice
In general, there are many factors that come into play when choosing. Not only the right height, but also the right baseboard for the house, is one of the factors that should be considered. If you pay attention to all the things we mentioned above, you can undoubtedly find the right height for your property and cornice.
