Wooden ceilings & architectural woodwork

Ceilings & Soffits

Timber ceilings and roofline soffits, laid board by board — over halls, terraces, pavilions and pool decks.

Angled underside ceiling fully lined in timber boards against a white facade

A wooden ceiling changes a whole room, and most of ours go up plank by plank on site — over double-height halls, angled rooflines and outdoor terraces, with the soffit following the architecture around the house.

Most of these frames were taken mid-install, because that is where the craft is visible. There is a crew on scaffolding lining a terrace ceiling in teak, boards being sorted on the floor of a double-height hall, and two carpenters on a ladder nailing soffit boards over a pool terrace. The finished work ranges from a pitched pavilion roof lined in light panels between dark rafters to an angled roofline soffit that reads as one clean plane from outside.

Overhead work is unforgiving: board spacing, fixings and the line of the first row show forever. That is why these timber ceilings and soffits went up piece by piece, checked as the rows ran.
