COFFERED & TRAY CEILINGS
Coffered ceilings have been around since the time of the Greeks and Romans, who cut up into stone ceilings to create sunken panels known as “coffers”, for decorative and structural purposes. Coffered ceilings are a classic and beautiful design, as well as a visually stunning piece of woodwork that will amaze any guest in your home.
Tray ceilings are made by building the ceiling at two different levels. They must be installed in rooms with high ceilings, as the edges of the ceiling will be dropped down to create the tray effect. Tray ceilings can be as simple or as intricate as you want to make them. Rope lighting is often added in tray ceilings to create a warming effect in the room; the lighting sits out of sight in the ceiling, and casts a soft warm glow.
