My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    I am not a designer but just put in a groin arch in the kitchen... we had 16' ceilings and used 2' for the depth of the arch ... but also raised the floor 2'.

    You might want to look at our groin vault kits... makes the installation quick and with perfect curves every time. With a groin vault, the greater the rise, the more dramatic the effect.

    You can look at lots of our groin vault installations and groin pics at http://www.csceilings.ca/groin-vaults.html

    If you are based in the states you can deal directly with Archways & Ceilings Made Easy (ACME) www.archwaysandceilings.com

    Hope this helps!
