A carved ceiling is a ceiling decorated with relief: panels, coffers, medallions and borders cut in deep detail. Decorative Architectural Products makes carved foam ceilings with CNC technology, so patterns that once needed a sculptor or a plaster crew can be produced from a drawing.

What carved foam ceilings are

A carved ceiling can be a field of carved ceiling panels, a coffered grid with carved coffers, a dome with radial ornament or a feature panel in the center of a room. Carved ceiling design ranges from classical acanthus and rosettes to geometric and oriental patterns, and a modern carved ceiling can use clean, shallow relief. Carved ceiling tiles and panels can be used alone or with foam beams for ceilings and cornices.

Foam construction

Each piece is CNC-cut from high-density EPS and covered with a polyurea hard coat, then hand-finished to bring out the detail. The weight is a fraction of plaster or wood, which means fewer fasteners and a lighter load on the ceiling. Foam ceilings can be painted, gilded or given an antique finish, and the surface takes a clean, repeatable detail across large areas. Because every panel is cut from the same file, the pattern repeats exactly, which is important in a cathedral ceiling, a lobby or a large hall.

Where they are used

Hotels, restaurants, churches, banquet halls, theaters and luxury homes.

Detail is the point of a carved ceiling, so we agree on the relief depth and the finish before production. A deep relief reads well in a high lobby, while a shallower pattern suits a lower room. We can produce a sample panel for approval, which helps designers and owners confirm the pattern, the color and the scale before the full order is made.

Ordering

Send the room dimensions, the pattern you like or a reference photo, and the finish. We prepare drawings, produce the panels and ship them with installation guidance. Our products carry a 20-year warranty.

How it works

1. Brief: send room dimensions, pattern references and photos.
2. Design: we draw the layout and confirm relief and finish.
3. Production: CNC cutting, polyurea coating and hand finishing.
4. Delivery: panels ship with installation guidance.
