Find The Right Interior Doors For Your Home (Part 2)

Style

Once you've decided on the type of door that best fits your needs, it's time to think about style. Regardless of construction material, these are some of our favorites:

Panel: Panel doors offer a little detail and history. The panels are constructed of rails and stiles to create two-, four- or six-panel options. Rails and stiles can be straight or curved to match your design aesthetic. Straight lines tend to fade to the background, which is often the best option when you're upgrading several doors in one space. Panel doors work well in more traditional design styles. Whether solid wood or hollow core, a black, six-panel door adds instant style and interest.

Flush: Flush doors are just that: smooth, with no detailing. The lack of detail makes them a good choice in any decor, but especially if you're working with more contemporary styles and accessories. This is also a style that can carry bright, citrus colors without overwhelming the space.

French doors: French doors are a beautiful upgrade in the right spot. The detailing of the panes—and the light they bring—improve the look of any space, and the value as well. Great for exterior doors, they can also help open up interior spaces while still offering boundaries, both visually and spatially.
