What is filler?
If you have bigger ceiling or are seeking a specific look that requires our more ornate 24″ pattern, you can easily layout the job using filler, although it takes a little more installation time and talent. Pattered and hammered filler transits from the edge of the 24″ pattern to the edge of the wall, where the filler edge is covered by trim. Imagine installing 24″ pattern panels in a room that measures 15’x17′. Cutting the last panels in half to fit the last foot against the wall would leave a visual inconsistancy between the pattern and the trim. To avoid this, install 14’x16′ of 24″ pattern panels from the center out, then finish the remaining area to the wall with filler (2 runs of 14′ and 2 runs of 16′). The filler will border your panels and help maintain visual consistancy. Our filler ships in 24″x24″ sheets and can easily be cut to fit with tin snips or a guillotine paper cutter. Mitering the corners on a 45 degree angle enhances the aesthetic.
