Dark Stained Wood Trim for Linking the White Door with the Wooden Windows

Wood trim is an excellent interior element that you can use for linking the white doors with any other things in the room. Without something like this, it would be hard to connect the bright white tone with any other items in the house. FYI, the door color here comes from the Greek Villa SW 7551 paint by Sherwin Williams.

To make it even more understandable, you can see the photo of a traditional entry above. It has an off-white door with stained oak wood trim as the frame.

The trim also goes down as a baseboard that separates the medium tone wood floor with the walls. Besides, it even frames the wooden windows.

As you can see here, the door and windows obviously have different appearances because of the colors. The trim becomes something that connects both of them so they can look good together in the same interior environment even if they contrast each other quite clearly.

Another thing that you need to know is that in this room design, there is one more thing that looks compatible with the combination of white door and dark-stained wood trim. It is none other but the off-white wall paint.

Together, all these interior elements create an inviting atmosphere. Something like this can make you and other people who enter the house feel the comfort.

Wood trim is also a thing that can connect your white doors with the floor in your house. The photo above contains an example for you to take a look at.

This interior design has a stained wood floor with a highly similar orange tone to the one you can see on the trim. It makes it looks like the floor and the trim fit to one another really nicely. In this particular case, we can say that the trim also has a link function that makes the door and floor matching to one another.

Together, all of them even create an interior color scheme that looks coordinating. Even the chair and the rocking horse in there have similar tones that are compatible with the room design, right?

The fact that the designer used white wall paint is also excellent here. It avoids the natural orange tone of the wood floor and trims to take over the space and makes the interior visually too warm.

The white wall paint, as well as any other white things in there, such as sliding doors, chair cushion, bed, and ceiling, also makes the room looks brighter. The large windows that allow natural lights to enter the house make things better because the place becomes airy too.

White Doors, Stained Wood Trim, and Coordinating Stair Railing

Here is another interesting idea that we found for you. It shows a home interior with a dominant white color and medium tone wood trim.

All the doors in this interior are in the same white tone. As a match, there is an interior wood trim in medium
tone added.

It is unfortunate that we do not exactly know about the species used here. However, as you can see, it looks stained.

The reason why we said that this idea is interesting is that the stair railing here looks compatible with the color of the wood trim. It also has a medium tone. However, if you look closely, it does not have the same stain.

It looks more like a wooden material that gets a clear coating. As you can see, the grains of the wood is still visible, and it makes the railing looks gorgeous.

As for the interior in general, anything else is in neutral tones that are obviously easy to pair with the combo of white doors and wood trim. Those include the white walls and the beige carpet flooring.

The fact that white color is more dominant makes this idea excellent for a modern interior style. However, you need to know that wood trim and white doors are very versatile. It means you can use it in any style as long as you can match them with the right elements and tones.

White Custom Closet Doors with Wood Trim

When we talk about the pairing of wood trim and white doors, we are not always talking about the function of doors as an entry. We can definitely talk about something else in this case.

Here is another interesting idea that we want you to take a look at. The doors that you see in the photo are not an entrance. Instead, these are something used to access the storage space inside the built-in custom closet in the kid’s bedroom.

The type of wood trim used here is the same as the one used in the rest of the house. It has a medium tone that seems to come from a staining process.

Mainly for this room, the wood trim has a unique function. It is none other but to make the closet doors visually more visible. As you can see, the walls are also in white. Without the trim, the doors are not really visible here. That is why the existence of the trim helps to create sense here.

Another thing you must know from the same photo is that the choice of medium tone for the trim here is just excellent for the bedroom. It creates a fresh look, particularly when the natural wood color is paired with the white tones in there.

In the lower part, you can see carpet flooring with beige color. The tone is neutral, so it is reasonable that it looks good together with the wooden trim as well as the white doors of the built-in closet.

Having white doors in your home design can make you think that it will be hard to create a cozy atmosphere in there. It is mainly because the tone is just bright. Well, the thing that you need to know is that you can still create the look if you want to.

One of the ways is by pairing the white doors with dark stained wood trim. Not only that, but you can also make the cozy atmosphere in your house even stronger when you choose a beige paint color for the walls.

A similar look is available in the photo above. As you can see, the door is the only white thing that we can find in this room. Without the dark stained wood trim, it would be hard to make the door fits in the interior color scheme that is filled with warm tones from the walls, floor, and furniture.

As for the wall, you can see that it gets a beige paint for the color. This tone looks fantastic, not only because it is matching with the dark stained wood trim in there. It is also an excellent pair for the warm interior lighting. Together, they create a cozy look.

When paired with wood trim, white doors can create elegance too. However, you need to know that the idea applies under certain circumstances only.

Please take a look at the picture of the hallway above. Originally, this photo was posted by the designer to show us the idea of adding a double-door in a hallway that leads to a master bedroom. The function is for adding privacy.

However, that is not the thing that we want to talk about further here. We will focus more on the combination of the wooden trim and the white doors in this hallway design.

Overall, we can say that every element in the photo can support each other in building up an elegant look. To be more specific, the most significant contributors here are the off-white doors, the dark-stained wood trim, and the creamy white wall paint.

Our suggestion is if you want to make your plain white door looks more elegant, try to pair it with dark wood trim. If your current trim is not in that kind of tone, you can think about remodeling. Still, please be careful because you must consider other interior elements too, such as the floor and the wall, for an excellent final result.

Here is the last but not least idea that we found for you. It contains an image of a kitchen interior in which there is a white door, dark stained wood trim, and dark wooden kitchen furniture.

The thing that we want to show you in this photo is still the function of wood trim as a link that connects the white door and the furniture choices in the kitchen area. If you look carefully, the trim and the cabinets and cupboard are in the exact same tone.

If the view is expanded, you can also see that other furniture in the same open kitchen and dining area also has a highly similar tone. It includes the bar stools and the dining table set.

Do you know what that means? That means the dark stained wood trim here is really helpful in making the white door fit in the room and becomes unity with other items in there.

One more thing. Just in case you are curious about the paint color used by the homeowner here, it is Mocha Accent 720D-5 by Behr . Together with the white door, wood trim, furniture, and floor in there, this tone creates a relaxing and cozy feel in the open kitchen.
