Not that sort of house, 90s house. That the only way to do it though as I did say it could t be done or a least easily

Photo please, you need right angle corners for cove,

You could do it with some pre made decorative cornice, it's not cheap to buy however

You can run it down the curve but it looks ****.
Stop end it just before the curve and return it into the wall.

To create light wells or whatever ya want to call them i have fitted coving and and fibrous cornice to walls below curves or barrels by fitting a made for purpose arras rail to the wall first and then fix the coving/cornice with screws through the mould and into the arras and then fill the screw heads.

Basically an arras rail is one half of a piece of 2x2 which has been cut in half on the diagonal ie 45 deg :RpS_thumbup:

Bograt how do! Yeah everything can be done but as with everything at what cost, this house is not one I would put cornice in, the client has coving in some of the rooms just standard gyproc cove, when I went to price it was a reskim and they asked if I would cove it as well but knowing the curved ceiling I have never coved a curved ceiling hence my question..

Gonna win the league I supposed Kopites are gobshites kinda proves the point hey :RpS_thumbsup:
