Designed to maximise ceiling space on any scale, Stevensons are experienced in the design and manufacture of bespoke decorative ceilings. Available in barrel, cross and rib vault and domed designs, Stevensons decorative ceilings can be moulded in our factory from fibrous plaster or GRP, or for a more traditional look, created in situ with lime plaster.
Our design team will work with you to create a complete look, co-ordinating the design with other elements in the dome space. Working with our in-house Drawing Office, your design will be made into a mould, before being cast by experienced craftsmen to provide a consistent geometry across the dome. Once on-site, the dome will be securely fixed, with supporting metalwork installed as required.
Available in a wide range of sizes, shapes and styles, Stevensons coffered ceilings can be designed to suit any property type or period styling. Plaster coffered ceilings can be installed in a wide variety of room types, and can vary in style.
Vaulted ceilings provide a much airier design to a room. Stevensons have experience installing a wide range of vaulted ceilings, in designs such as barrel, cross and rib vaults. Our in-house Drawing Office will assist you in developing your design based on your requirements, providing detailed drawings and installation guidelines. Once approved, your design will be manufactured in our factory ready for installation.
Our bespoke ceiling design service covers all styles of decorative plaster ceiling, including simple and decorative panel ceilings, domed ceilings, vaulted ceilings and coffered ceilings. Depending on the suitability of the design, we can manufacture ceilings in a choice of plaster types, including fibrous plaster, traditional lime plaster, GRP, and our own Stevenson-Stone®.
Bespoke Design & Restoration
As part of a larger restoration project by the Royal Collection Trust, Stevensons of Norwich were invited to renovate the Queens Gallery within the grounds of Buckingham Palace.
For the impressive Lecture Theatre within the Gallery, Stevensons designed a bespoke ceiling rose, which was mounted within a striking central pendentive ribbed plaster dome, set within a perfect square. The walls within the Lecture Theatre included plaster arches and columns, and the room was finished with a range of ventilation rosettes. Alongside interior work, we used our own Stevensons-Stone® material to cast new exterior cornice, and an ornate sign for the building entrance.
Our work on the Queens Gallery received awards recognition upon completion, with the Judges commenting that the geometry was very difficult, but the effect, carried out perfectly, was well worth it, and noting that Stevensons carried out the best single piece of plasterwork seen this year: the enriched lintel and brackets to the doorway leading from the stair into the entrance lobby.

Vaulted Plaster Ceiling Installation
As part of a site-wide restoration project, Stevensons installed an impressive vaulted plaster ceiling in the corridor of the refurbished Hitchin Priory hotel.
Installed within the Grade 1 listed building, the fibrous plaster vaulted ceiling leaves a lasting impression on visitors to the hotel. Stevensons cast the fibrous plaster ceiling in our factory, before installing the smooth plaster ceiling on-site, supporting it with a secondary metal grid attached to the main building structure above.
