Bulkhead ceilings are an additional ceiling which protrudes from the main ceiling. They are often a box shape but can be domed, curved, rounded etc. They can have more than one level. Bulkheads are used to house downlighters, to highlight pictures on the wall, to hide ugly construction features and to join two ceilings of different heights.
