About this asset

Technical ceiling grid framework for SketchUp, featuring a modular suspended metal structure for exposed ceiling designs. This technical ceiling grid consists of a modular, rectilinear metal framework designed for suspended applications. The assembly features a primary grid of interconnected horizontal profiles and smaller support struts, creating a consistent geometric pattern. The structure is rendered in a neutral brown tone, suggesting a raw or coated metal finish suitable for industrial or commercial interiors. Its composition focuses on the skeleton of an exposed ceiling system, providing depth and technical detail for architectural visualisations where the mechanical or structural overhead components are intended to be visible.

The download is a 3.8 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 model functions as a base component for ceiling detailing. Users should import the file as a group or component to maintain the integrity of the grid structure. It can be scaled to fit specific room dimensions or tiled to cover larger ceiling areas. Applying custom material shaders to the metal components will enhance realism in renders. Ensure the model is placed on a dedicated ceiling layer to manage visibility and complexity within the master project file.

This framework is ideal for industrial-style offices, retail showrooms, or modern commercial spaces where an exposed ceiling aesthetic is required. It serves as an excellent foundation for adding MEP services, lighting tracks, and acoustic baffles. Professionals can utilise this asset during the design development stage to communicate ceiling heights and structural layouts. It pairs well with industrial lighting fixtures and raw concrete wall finishes, making it a versatile choice for contemporary interior design projects focusing on functional, high-tech, or utilitarian aesthetics.
