Georgian Profiles
Georgian architecture ran from roughly 1700 to 1780 and remains the most enduring template for formal American homes — symmetrical facades, paneled doors, and richly layered interior trim. Georgian moulding is built up from multiple distinct elements: ogees, ovolos, beads, and fillets stacked into crown and cornice assemblies, with raised six- or eight-panel doors set into wide cased openings.
