| ClassicTraditional The raised panel style has been popular in noteworthy buildings ranging from early Colonial beginning with the 18th century through the Prairie and Craftsman period of the early 20th century. The raised panel design is a classically inspired, timeless style that has been used repeatedly by nearly every great designer throughout the past three American centuries. ClassicTraditional raised paneling is considered the style of choice for the more important and formal gathering spaces of a building, often encompassing foyers, libraries, dining and living rooms.

| ClassicBeadboard Historically, beadboard was commonly used in rooms of lesser importance, such as kitchens, pantries and bedrooms. During the 19th century it became the cost-effective wall covering of choice for summer cottages. Hence the enduring association of beadboard with a more informal and relaxed lifestyle. Today, ClassicBeadboard is generously used in vacation homes as well as foyers, hallways, bathrooms, porches and other less formal gathering spaces of primary residences.

| ClassicAmerican The Craftsman style was an early 20th century reply to the Victorians' ornate excesses. It called for a return to a sophisticated, understated elegance. As the name suggests, the Craftsman style - along with Mission and Art and Crafts styles - popularized a minimalist beauty that was based on structural integrity and fine joinery. ClassicAmerican faithfully recreates the recessed flat panel and stile wainscot popular in these decor styles. ClassicAmerican's flat or "recessed" panels are often used in the major gathering spaces of a home such as the dining room, living room, foyer and den as an alternative to raised panels.

| ClassicModern The 20th century modern movement, sought a minimalistic, smooth and unarticulated wall surface appearance; hence, a further refinement of the classical raised panel style. Wood paneled systems detailed by such architects as Alvar Aalto and Louis Kahn, configured the panel, stile and rail in a single, near flush plane, creating the illusion of a continuous surface. Natural wood finishes emphasized the wood grain, while varying the grain orientation produced grid like geometric patterns. The ClassicModern style is ideally suited to commercial and institutional spaces, such as conference rooms, reception areas, public gathering spaces, and lobbies. It is also a unique choice for homeowners looking for a more urban contemporary look with the warmth and beauty of natural wood. It can be used as a wainscot or feature wall in a loft space, living area, or dining area.

| ClassicCottage For many of us, the archetypal image of the cottage home comes from storybook memories of a diminutive dwelling at the end of a winding trail with smoke rising from the chimney. In attempting to define the enduring appeal of cottages, words like comfort, coziness, charm, simplicity, and intimacy spring to mind, suggesting that the idea of “cottage” is as much a state of mind as it is a tangible presence. That’s what ClassicCottage does. With its combination of small panels, dating from the early Colonial period and its informal 19th-century beadboard, ClassicCottage, creates in almost any room, an unpretentious and intimate interior. ClassicCottage, while appropriate for virtually any room is most appealing in smaller rooms, like guest bedrooms, and informal gathering areas like kitchens, family rooms, and entryways -- wherever you want to create the “cottage” state of mind.

| ClassicRustic The stylistic roots of ClassicRustic are credited to the English Arts and Crafts Movement, first seen in the U.S. in the great camps of the Adirondacks. At the turn of the 20th century, Americans, urbanized and inundated with Victorian excess, latched onto the idea of simple, utilitarian, hand-crafted wood paneling to go into their Shingle, Prairie and Mission style homes. Today this “rustic” look has exploded in popularity in America. Not only is it used in lodges, inns, country restaurants, and vacation getaways, it’s also used in many less formal places of the home like family rooms, dens, enclosed porches, and kitchens -- any room that is enhanced by a rustic natural feeling.
