About this asset

This parametric timber slat ceiling for SketchUp features an intricate, flowing geometry defined by vertical wooden elements. Comprised of a series of vertical timber slats, this ceiling installation creates a fluid, wave-like form that transitions from a horizontal canopy into a vertical support structure. The design relies on precise, rhythmic spacing to achieve its organic, undulating silhouette. Each slat is finished with a natural wood texture, highlighting the grain and warmth of the material. The assembly is intended to serve as a dramatic focal point, providing a sense of enclosure and architectural interest within large interior volumes. Its complex, repetitive geometry suggests a sophisticated computational design process.

The download is a 13 MB compressed archive containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.

In SketchUp, this component is best handled as a single group or component instance to maintain model performance. Users should leverage the native layering system to isolate the ceiling from other interior elements for easier visibility toggling. When integrating into a project, apply custom wood textures or procedural materials to the slat faces to match the specific project palette. Scaling should be performed carefully to preserve the uniform spacing and integrity of the parametric form, ensuring the vertical alignment remains consistent.

This ceiling feature is well-suited for high-end commercial interiors, including hotel lobbies, retail showrooms, or modern office reception areas. It pairs effectively with minimalist wall finishes and neutral flooring to allow the wood geometry to stand out as a primary design element. Architects and interior designers might search for this asset when looking for bespoke ceiling solutions, feature wall cladding, or parametric timber installations that require a high level of visual impact in conceptual or developed design stages.
