Add Elegance to Your Home With Crossheads

The difference between a boring home and a unique one is in the little details. Choosing the right custom millwork for your home can make your interior stand out and impress your guests. Adding elegant crossheads to your windows and doors can elevate your decor and add an air of elegance to your home.

Evoking an Ancient Architectural Style

 

A crosshead is an element of your window or door which ornaments the upper portion of the frame. Although crossheads don’t really serve any sort of functional purpose, they do add a truly elegant design element. Adding crossheads to your windows or doors evokes the same kind of architectural classicism as columns. The visual shape of a door with a prominent crosshead is very similar to that of a column, and the addition of this three-dimensional element adds visual weight to the upper section of your door, making it seem taller and adding to it a sense of importance.

 

Selecting the Best Design for Your Home

 

Crossheads come in a variety of patterns ranging from minimalist to ornate. The type of millwork you chose for your crossheads should reflect your own personal style, as well as the existing design elements of your home. A minimalist piece can create a subconscious sense of elegance, while a more detailed one might become the aesthetic centerpiece of a room, anchoring together all the other design elements. When consulting your chosen company, they should be able to help you find the right design to suit your tastes perfectly.

 

If you’re looking for a way to make your home’s interior design feel unique while adding a touch of classic elegance, look no further than window and door crossheads. Whether you opt for the plain or the proud, this type of millwork pairs with any interior, and is certain to make your home stand out.
