- Entrance halls
- Heritage buildings
- Hotels and commercial interiors

A Striking Architectural Feature
A barrel vault is a continuous curved ceiling form that can transform corridors, entrance halls, staircases, reception rooms and commercial interiors. It adds height, movement and a sense of craftsmanship that flat ceilings rarely achieve.
Traditional & Contemporary Applications
Barrel vaults can be kept simple or enhanced with mouldings, panels, enrichments and lighting.
- Simple curved plaster ceilings
- Decorative vaulted ceilings
- Coffered or panelled vaults
- Heritage reproductions
- Bespoke ceiling features
Surveying & Setting Out
Vaulted ceilings require accurate setting out. Irregular walls, uneven ceilings and out-of-square spaces can affect the final appearance. Laser measurement and digital surveying can help identify these issues early.
Heritage Restoration
Historic vaulted ceilings may require repair, reproduction or sympathetic reinstatement. Traditional plasterworking knowledge is important where existing details must be preserved or matched.
Integrated Decorative Design
Barrel vaulted ceilings can work alongside cornices, ceiling roses, decorative enrichments, arches and wall panels to create a complete architectural interior.
