Custom-made plaster light cove by Cema Group

Plaster light coves

Bespoke plaster and metal solutions for integrated lighting in hotels, ships, villas, and contract environments

Indirect lighting, light fixtures, continuous lines: in hospitality spaces and contract environments, lighting is not merely a technical component, it is part of the architecture. The need to integrate decorative and lighting elements often clashes with structural, building systems, and site coordination constraints.

Light coves represent an advanced architectural solution for integrating LED systems and indirect lighting into suspended ceilings, walls, and drywall or plaster features. Cema Group Srl creates fully custom-made light coves, designed to work seamlessly with the lighting design and the technical requirements of the job site, guaranteeing geometric precision and flawless execution quality.

Light that defines space: custom light coves

Articulated ceilings, drop ceilings, and light paths: in projects for hotels, ships, SPA, and high-end residences, architects and designers face the need to integrate lighting and architecture in a coherent and controlled manner. Standard light coves often fail to meet these needs, resulting in visual discontinuities or execution difficulties. Plaster light coves created by Cema Group Srl are designed to adapt seamlessly to the project, offering bespoke solutions developed from the earliest stages that combine technical precision and aesthetic balance.

Custom production of light coves by Cema Group Srl

Plaster light coves are a technical element that requires seamless coordination between design, production, and installation. Cema Group manages all processes in-house, ensuring complete control over the production phases and adaptability to actual site conditions. This approach enables designers and construction management to achieve reliable solutions consistent with the project, reducing execution issues and enhancing the final quality of light within the spaces.

The customization that functionality requires

From a technical standpoint, plaster light coves must be sized according to the light sources, heat dissipation, and the desired lighting effect. Cema Group develops custom solutions by adapting geometries, depths, and inspection systems to the project conditions. Plaster and metal craftsmanship ensures precision alignment and seamless surfaces, preventing interference with systems and structures.

The architectural design behind a light cove

Plaster light coves are decorative elements designed to house and shield linear light sources, contributing to the diffusion of indirect light. They can be integrated into suspended ceilings, perimeter cornices, or walls, becoming part of the architectural design. Light is no longer an added element, but a tool that defines volumes, heights, and pathways, enhancing the perception of space.
