1985. I think crown looks good in homes of all years, but I love crown molding!
I disagree. I think crown molding looks wrong in a very contemporary/modern house. It is one of my peeves with what we are finding in our house hunting, and one of the things that looks wrong to me in some of our neighborhood homes on the market. We have too many weird angles and places that you have end the crown strangely, which should be a clue that it doesn't work in the space.
Btw, your kitchen is gorgeous.
Our house was built in '58 - I'm hesitant to do TOO much crown (though I love it) - maybe I'll buy a test piece to see if I like how it looks....
