dantappin Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) Looking to arch this entryway (like attached photo) - not really obvious to me how you do this. Edited January 27 by dantappin Added photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Not really obvious to me what you want to arch? The hallway, the transom, or just some kind of opening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantappin Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 Just foyer area as you step in - like this attached photo. Forgot I had this and should have included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 If there's a valance that looks good, you can make it as deep as the foyer. Or use a custom backslash and break it where you want to and arch it. There might be other ways, though those 2 options came to mind first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottharris Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 There’s probably not an easy way to do that in Home Designer Pro. In Chief Architect Premier, you could use the curved ceiling tool; or a 3D solid for the barrel ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantappin Posted January 27 Author Share Posted January 27 I may try a really deep arched door way. Might work. I also might draw it in Sketchup and then import. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookie65 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 What will you use to fill in the space between the frame, walls and ceiling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 The best looking arch is the door entry arch, which is a custom backsplash. BUT...it won't allow a recessed light. The arch in the middle is a cabinet valance, and the far right is an arbor arch shape (library). They both allow recessed lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am always amazed at simple solutions offered here by so many cluey users. The Forum is a great fall-back. This looks to me like some input is also needed from Mr. 'Solver'? Jeff.

Still relatively new to this app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
