Coffers are a nice way to break-up a large ceiling. This Fivecat Studio project has 10+ foot ceilings and this room is about 30′X30′. It’s a very big space. It will be used daily as a family room, but will also be a great place for entertaining friends and business associates.
In order to reduce the scale of the room and add some texture to the ceiling, we designed a coffered ceiling with stained mahogany beams and painted drywall coffer panels.
The town requires us to provide a fire sprinkler system for this project and since the beams are not structural, they make a convenient place to hide the
CPVC piping. Located at beam intersections, the sprinkler heads will almost be invisible once the flush covers are installed.
Check out the craftsmanship on that mitered joint. Its nice to see a finish carpenter with passion and pride in his work.
