French Inspired Curves

Curved architraves, tall skirting boards & skirting blocks are the timber moulding details that complete this magnificent home.

From the moment you sweep through the wrought‑iron front gates and along the sandstone‑lined drive, this French Provincial residence signals a love of craft and ceremony. A custom front door opens to a soaring foyer, where an ornate spiral staircase draws the eye upward to a dazzling, bespoke crystal chandelier. Every element is composed to feel generous, welcoming and impeccably detailed.

Throughout the home, curved motifs bring a refined softness - arched openings, sculpted fireplaces, graceful chandeliers and custom curved architraves using Intrim’s SK961 profile. These details create elegant sightlines from space to space and set the tone for a classic French look with contemporary polish.

A richly appointed reception room anchors the formal entertaining zone with coffered ceilings, a magnificently carved fireplace and a stone‑topped bar accented in warm brass. Day‑to‑day living flows across a casual lounge, showpiece kitchen and sun‑lit dining space that opens to a sparkling pool and spa - an ideal backdrop for long lunches and evening gatherings.

Five serene bedrooms deliver hotel‑level comfort. In the parents’ wing, an elegant bedroom opens to Juliet balconies, with a fully fitted dressing room and marble‑lined en‑suite. Each bathroom celebrates craft - classic brass tapware, Victoria + Albert claw‑foot bathtubs, exquisite marble tiling and custom joinery - balancing romance with everyday practicality.

Skirting & architraves: Tall, ornate Intrim SK245 skirting boards complement the grand ceiling heights and curved walls, adding rhythm and proportion throughout the home.

Curved architraves: Intrim SK961 curved architraves deliver those signature French swells around portals and openings.

Skirting blocks: Intrim SB01 skirting blocks provide a refined transition where different profile thicknesses meet - an elegant solve that also elevates doorways.

Pro Tip: For designers or homeowners seeking alternatives or inspiration to create a classic French Provincial interior, Intrim recommends pairing Intrim’s SK945B skirting and architrave profile with CR280 chair rail and IN09 inlay mould for authentic, period detailing. Consider these where curves and continuity are a priority. You can purchase our French Provicinal sample box featuring these profiles here.
