{freestanding} architectural details

A home doesn't have to have a storied history or crown moldings to have elegant architectural details. These details can be added in a creative manner by freestanding elements such a a leaning mantle as the focal point of a dining room...

...or Corinthian columns flanking a couch.

These unexpected touches add an elegant flair to these otherwise eclectic spaces.

I have always loved columns in the corner of rooms, I love it when they are used to hold large ferns. Great images. Kathysue

These images are just beautiful. Clean and pretty. Love the juxtaposition of crystals, greenery and rugged architectural elements in the first.

What I love about both rooms is the contrast of old and new, cool and warm.

I'm of the opinion that every house should have a crystal chandelier somewhere and not necessarily the dining room, regardless of the house style. Every house can do with a litle bit of "jewelry"
