Shadow Reveal made Easy!!!

In this video we are back at the big house, the intro is a teaser for all the upcoming cool architectural and design content from there but the focus will be on a simple but laborious effect we used throughout the house called a shadow reveal. Its a flush trim effect we are seeing more and more on high end custom homes with a modern architectural approach! We've used a version of this on our last 3 big projects and this time we took it all the way and developed a few nuanced installation tricks that made the finished product near perfect!

That marble above the fireplace is amazing!

Large format porcelain is a game changer!

Very cool modern look. I'll be doing that in my house. You need to do a video on those stairs!! They look awesome!

[@cuttingedgehomes9251]

That vid will be up as soon as they are finished

Very cool effect. I was almost expecting you to say you were going to run an led strip in there... Which would look cool but not be nearly as elegant. Very nice.

[@cuttingedgehomes9251]

People do, mostly in restaurants or on mop boards going up stairs but it really does cheapen the simple elegance

I’d love to see the water barrier details while it was being built with all those flat lines on the roof. That is an awesome home!! Another idea for the riglet would be to mount a string light on the under side around the baseboard only as a night light kinda. What do you think?

[@cuttingedgehomes9251]

They have a special reglet for that believe it or not, recesses the led tape just enough to not see the actual diodes

The poo!!!l It is summer time !!😎

Thanks, that's interesting. I tried to do something like this with plain old aluminum angle and it has potential but I ended up ripping it out of that room and going conventional trim because the joints where the pieces butted together showed badly and the screws heads, even though countersunk looked odd.
Obviously your showing what someone's developed that is much better.
Question though, I used blocking to back up the trim board and angle iron to attach to, I assume you did the same?

Who makes the walnut solid core door?

[@cuttingedgehomes9251]

We made them :)

Would be sooooooo much better if you showed us instead of describing this
