Choosing between timber and MDF window architraves comes down to balancing style, durability, budget, and maintenance. Timber architraves offer natural grain, warmth, and long-term durability, making them ideal for heritage homes, feature areas, and spaces where character matters. MDF architraves, on the other hand, provide a smooth, uniform finish that’s perfect for painted applications and modern interiors, all at a more affordable price point.
Both materials have their strengths, and in many projects, combining timber in feature areas with MDF in secondary spaces delivers the best of both worlds. Understanding how each option performs helps ensure a finish that suits your design goals and practical needs.
