From Overlooked to On-Trend
Five years ago, most builders wouldn’t spare more than a minute for cornices they were background details, standard issue, not something you pitched to a client. But in 2025, that’s changed.
Homebuyers today are asking for homes that feel complete not just functional, but beautiful. That means design details like cornices are suddenly front and centre in build conversations.
And the good news? Small changes make a big impression.
What Buyers Want in 2025
Design-savvy clients are requesting clean, seamless lines in modern homes or carefully chosen heritage profiles in renovations. Warm, earthy tones, curved textures, and blended materials are all trending this autumn and the cornice plays a crucial role in tying it all together.
That subtle shadow line? That extra step in a bulkhead? It’s the kind of detail that sets a premium build apart from a project home.
Case in Point: A Northside Builder’s Recent Win
A custom home builder in North Brisbane recently worked with PlastaMasta Northside to upgrade their standard cornice selections. With a mix of square-set finishes and gently curved heritage profiles in key living zones, the home gained a clean, elevated look. The result? A faster sale and above-market offers.
