Compound crown mouldings bring together multiple classical shapes—such as coves, ovolos, ogees, and cyma curves—into one continuous, flowing profile. By combining these basic moulding forms, compound crowns create a layered, dimensional look that elevates the transition between walls and ceilings.
These mouldings are often used to introduce a greater sense of scale and craftsmanship into a space, adding visual depth without overwhelming the architecture. Whether featuring subtle blends or more pronounced shifts between concave and convex curves, compound crown profiles bring a sense of rhythm and movement to the room.
With roots in traditional millwork but adaptable to a wide range of styles, compound crown mouldings are ideal for spaces that call for both refinement and strong architectural presence. Their design reflects a careful understanding of proportion, shadow, and form—key elements when working with mouldings to enhance the overall character of an interior.
