tray ceiling
Inverted ceiling box
A tray ceiling is a recessed ceiling design where the center section is higher than the perimeter, creating a stepped or inverted tray shape.
The effect adds architectural interest and the illusion of height to a room: The dining room's tray ceiling made the space feel more elegant.
Often accented with molding or indirect lighting.
