Is it worth using arches in interiors?
Back to guideArches in interiors are a good alternative to interior doors. They are used as an interior decoration and its functional element, which separates the space between two rooms. Arches can be made of many materials (such as stone, wood and even brick), and the simplest form most often found in apartments resembles an ordinary door frame, finished with a semicircle at the top. For more classical ways of finishing, the frame of the arch can be decorated with an ornament or decorative pilasters. It all depends on the creative ingenuity of the architect and our taste.
What are the advantages of arches in interiors?
Arches are a good way to open up spaces in the house and emphasize the style of the interior. When designing a house in loft or modern style, we can not only optically enlarge the room, but also match the framework of the passage with the materials that dominate the room. However, arches will not work in every design, especially when it comes to houses with low ceilings. Arches work well with ceilings 3-4 meters high. Such dwellings are typical of old townhouses and contemporary single-family houses.
Use of the frame as a doorway without doors
The arch is not the only solution for opening a space while separating two rooms. A simpler and equally impressive form is to leave the door opening without a leaf. Semicircles in arches are difficult to fit into a minimalist interior, and a simple door frame without a leaf is less decorative and lofty.
Customized door frames are available in our Stalprodukt Zamosc catalog. On request, we can create doorframes without hinges. In the case of this type of doorframe, the installation of the sash is possible, so for future interior arrangements we offer consultation and shipping of new parts. If you are interested in such a solution, fill out the application form and wait for contact from our offer department.
