PL36 pattern

The PL36 ceiling panel is built around a layered variant quatrefoil motif, combining the tracery of medieval Gothic architecture with elements of 19th-century Gothic Revival and academic classicism. At the center, a four-direction star medallion formed by soft, flowing lines recalls the plaster centers of European churches and palace halls. Concentric quatrefoil curves and cusped arches radiate outward, echoing ornamental forms seen in Gothic and early Renaissance buildings in cities such as Florence and Paris. The outer frame features pronounced stepped mouldings, giving the design a disciplined geometric edge characteristic of Victorian and Beaux-Arts interiors.
The strengths of PL36 lie in its pure use of lines and volumes: it avoids heavy foliage yet still delivers a strong sense of order and ceremony. The central star naturally becomes the focal point for chandeliers or ceiling fixtures, while the concentric relief bands create rich light-and-shadow effects that add depth and sculptural quality to the ceiling. Its four-way symmetry allows multiple panels to connect seamlessly, making it ideal for neo-classical, Gothic Revival, and contemporary eclectic spaces.
