What’s in Your House
Take a good look around your house. Look at all the doorways and openings in your home. Look where doorway walls go up to the header or ceiling. Look at the pass-thru from your kitchen to your dining room. Over the bathtub. At the end of your hallways.
What do you see? Square corners. That’s what you see. Everywhere you look you see square corners. Just like every other house out there. Now imagine having beautiful arched doorways and arched openings throughout your home. Soft, warm, eye pleasing curves instead of those cold square corners. So how do you get from square corners to arched doorways easily?
It’s so simple. You are just 4 easy steps from having beautiful arched doorways and openings in your home by using Creative Corners.
A little about interior arches…
Where do you see archways today? Look at the tv shows and commercials. Arched doorways show up all the time. The same with magazine ads. Doorway arches are in the background. In the current housing industry, you will find arched doorways being built in the high end homes. Why? Because they are pleasing to the eye. They have that warm and fuzzy feeling we all like.
Prior to the invention of drywall, plaster was the choice for wall construction. Tough to work with, yet had the ability to be formed into infinite shapes. Have you ever been in an old plaster built home? They ooze warmth, charm and character. Much of this appeal is because of the arched doorways and arched openings.
Why don’t we see even more interior arches today? Why don’t we all have arched doorways in our home? Drywall was invented. Drywall became the answer to quick and affordable housing in the late 1950’s. Sometimes called sheet rock, drywall is the product of choice for today’s builders…if it’s straight and flat, it’s easy to build with drywall.
While it is easier to use, it also took something away from us. It took the character and charm from our home. It brought the square corner into our lives. No more charm, no more warm and fuzzy. Oh sure, you can paint and decorate and bring a touch of each of these in. But nothing says cozy like arches.
So what can you do?
You can try to build them yourself the old fashioned way. Framing, bending and trying to get the right side to match the left side. Quite the daunting task. This generally leads to cussing, screaming and an early beer.
You can hire a contractor to build your arched doorways from scratch. But that can be expensive.
Or…
You can build your own arched doorways with Creative Corners. The quick, easy and affordable way to create beautiful arched doorways with professional results.
