Penkridge Hall, Leebotwood
The Project
At Penkridge Hall in Leebotwood, Fine Art Mouldings executed the design, supply, and installation of a bespoke vaulted ceiling in a newly constructed building. A significant amount of CAD (Computer-Aided Design) work was undertaken to develop the complex ceiling layout and ensure precise execution. The large fibrous plaster panels were carefully pieced together like a puzzle, resulting in a seamless finish. Expert craftsmanship ensured all joints and mitres were hand-dressed and refined to perfection. Prior to installing the fibrous plasterwork, a suspended metal ceiling and fire-rated boarding were completed. This harmonious combination of modern design technology and traditional artisan skills delivered a striking feature that enhances the building’s architectural integrity.
Scope of Works
- Design Development: Extensive CAD work to create and refine the vaulted ceiling layout.
- Material Preparation: Supplied and fabricated fibrous plaster panels tailored to the design.
- Installation:
- Constructed a suspended metal ceiling framework.
- Installed fire-rated boarding as a foundational layer.
- Pieced and secured plaster panels to create a seamless ceiling.
- Finishing:
- Seamlessly finished the plasterwork, with all joints and mitres hand-dressed to exacting standards.
This project demonstrates Fine Art Mouldings’ ability to integrate cutting-edge design processes with traditional craftsmanship, resulting in a visually stunning and structurally sound feature.
