Plain Plaster Ceiling Roses

The ceiling rose has been around for centuries, though its popularity waned during the mid-to-late 20th century. Perhaps surprisingly, it's made something of a comeback with ceiling roses being installed in all manner of contemporary homes. The most obvious difference between contemporary ceiling roses and their predecessors is a matter of detail. With contemporary ceiling roses tending to be much more simple.

Is a Plain Plaster Ceiling Rose Appropriate for My House?

While they are extremely versatile and adaptable, the plain plaster ceiling rose will not be appropriate for every home. Here are some of the factors to consider when weighing whether to install a plain ceiling rose in your home.

Ceiling height

If your home has low ceilings, you'll
want to opt for a smaller ceiling rose, typically less than 1/2 metre in
diameter. Otherwise, it could overwhelm the space. On the other hand, if your
home features high ceilings, you'll want to choose a larger plain ceiling rose,
perhaps as large as 900cm.

Style of the room

If the home is fundamentally modernist
in design, a plain ceiling rose should be a good fit. If, on the other hand,
you have a custom home with lots of decorative touches, a plain ceiling rose
may seem out of place.

The inclusion of a light fixture

You will need to make sure the size of
any light fixture is in harmony with the size of the ceiling rose. If the light
fixture is too large for the ceiling rose, or you decide to expand the size of
the ceiling rose to accommodate a large chandelier, it's going to create visual
dissonance. The same is true if the light fixture is too small for the ceiling
rose.
