Molding is a decorative architectural element made from wood, plaster, or composite materials, used to accentuate the transition between surfaces such as walls, ceilings, doors, and floors. It adds visual interest, hides joints, and enhances the overall aesthetic of a space. Styles range from simple baseboards and crown moldings to intricate cornices and chair rails. Often painted or stained, molding can define the character of interiors—whether classical, traditional, or contemporary—by introducing depth, contrast, and refined detail.
