Interior Ceilings

Onwards to ceiling design and plastering

Scaffolding for Ceiling Work
Before working on the ceilings scaffolding needed to be erected and then framework built onto the ceilings to hold honeycomb wire mesh made from tin and galvanized steel to keep it from rusting.
The Process of Plastering

After the framework was completed the chicken wire lath had to be installed in order to hold the plaster in place.  This keeps the plaster from too much expansion and contraction thereby keeping the plaster from cracking.  A beautiful star shaped detail was added for lighting fixture in the central hall.
