Benefits of a coffered ceiling
There are many benefits to a white coffered ceiling. They add an element of luxury through architectural design. Principally, though, they can take a bland space into something with great detail. They can be functional too. If you have an existing ceiling with defects or in poor condition, adding a coffered ceiling can hide several sins! Hiding wood beams is a real benefit too. A significant benefit is the acoustical dampening that you can achieve.
Drawbacks of a coffered ceiling
For all their benefits, there are some disadvantages to consider. Firstly, a modern coffered ceiling can be quite expensive, depending on the square foot, and require professional installation. Even professionally fitted, they are prone to defects such as cracking. There is also the visual aspect to consider. What was once an airy room could begin to feel cramped. It may also be a dust magnet depending on the coffered ceiling design. This leads to other problems cleaning then depending on the ceiling height.
Are coffered ceilings outdated?
Some will argue that they are outdated. However, they remain as popular as ever. They are seen as an attractive interior design choice that adds value to a home. Plenty of examples of the value-added simply by adding decorative molding. With new application methods like tray ceilings, ceiling tiles, and sunken panels, a faux coffered ceiling is up to date.
A coffered ceiling can move things forward if you want to add value while adding interest to your home.
What to consider before getting your coffered ceiling
The main thing to consider is the size of the space. Calculations will be required to size the panels accurately. The symmetry in the panels is what makes them so attractive and eye-catching. The size, shape, and number of panels must be determined before you consider hiring a professional or an interior designer. If you are a competent DIY enthusiast, it is something that you can do yourself.
With a little planning, you can add tremendous value to your home decor while adding plenty of architectural interest. Consider these black ceiling ideas for something a little different and also consider these vintage industrial decor ideas and wood accent wall bedroom ideas.
