Molding Simplified to a Single Line

A simplified set of plaster moldings. The junction of wall and ceiling has only one cornice line, with a cross-section of two to three clean stepped setbacks, no dentils, egg-and-dart, or floral carvings; the center of the ceiling has no rosette, or only a minimalist circular shallow recess. The door frame moldings are a scaled-down version of the same cross-section. All are the same color as the wall, seen by shadow. Avoid: using multiple layers of complex classical cornices, adding carvings and gilding, retaining ornate plaster rosettes on the ceiling, painting moldings a different color from the wall.

一組被簡化的石膏線板。牆與天花的交界只有一道簷口線,斷面是兩到三個乾淨的階段退縮,沒有齒飾、蛋鏢與花草雕刻;天花中央沒有玫瑰花飾,或只留一個極簡的圓形淺凹。門框的線腳是同一套斷面的縮小版。全部與牆同色,靠陰影被看見。避免:使用多層繁複的古典簷口、加入雕花與描金、在天花保留華麗的石膏玫瑰、把線板漆成與牆不同的顏色。
