A cornice is a decorative moulding installed at the junction where the wall meets the ceiling. Traditionally inspired by French and Italian architectural styles, cornices have become an essential element in modern Indian interiors. They provide a neat, refined look and elevate the overall aesthetic appeal of a space.

Though they may seem like minor details, cornices play a vital role in achieving visual harmony and elegance. With the right design, they offer a stylish finish to your ceiling and help bring together all the elements of your interior design.

Types of Cornice Designs

Cornices are commonly available in two materials: Gypsum and Plaster of Paris (POP). While both are made from calcium sulphate, gypsum cornices are reinforced with polyurethane, making them more durable and easier to install compared to POP. Additionally, gypsum is moisture-resistant, reducing the chances of dampness or water damage from the roof—an added advantage in humid climates.

About Gypsum Cornice Designs

Gypsum cornices are available in a wide range of patterns—plain, carved, geometric, and floral. You can select a design that complements your room’s overall style and theme.

• Plain Cornices: Ideal for minimalist or modern interiors with heavy furnishings.

• Carved Cornices: Best suited for traditional or classical settings, adding intricate detail and character.

• Geometric Designs: Perfect for commercial spaces such as offices, hotels, or restaurants where a bold, contemporary look is desired.

• Floral Motifs: Offer a decorative touch for living rooms, lounges, or boutique spaces.

Each type adds a unique element of sophistication and visual balance.

Installing a Gypsum Cornice Design

Gypsum cornices are easy to install and should be planned after the false ceiling framework is complete. They can be used to highlight specific features like fan points or lighting fixtures—but avoid using them on both in the same space to maintain design clarity.

When using cornices in rooms with bold decor or elaborate furniture, opt for simpler designs to prevent visual overload. For a seamless experience, maintain design continuity across different rooms.
