Laurel Murals
Border Patterns
Frame areas and emphasize architecture.
Chinoiserie border. The barreled ceiling of an exquisite powder room is antiqued, then finished with a trompe l'oeil Chinese lattice border and a central medallion.
Garland border. A border of turning leaves frames the seating area within a larger hall.
Tile edging. An illusion of antique Armenian tiles outlines a sharply arched window.
A simple antiqued pattern on a door arch adds an elegant finish.
Coordinating patterns are carried onto ceiling beams.
Wide archways become another focal point when embellished with pattern.
