Ceiling/Wall Intersection Reveals

[Gregg_Design]

Does anyone know how to provide for a wall/ceiling intersection to have a reveal (gap) instead of moldings?

 Two ways that I can think of quickly...

1 - Wall material region along the top edge of wall

2 - Create a pony wall with the top section of the pony wall to have a thinner interior layer than the wall type below.

Probably my choice too but I'd make a copy of your default Ext. and Int. Walls and change the Interior drywall to 1/16th thick the Black metal material ( Library ) and change the Default Wall Material Region to 1/2" or 5/8 Drywall with the cut parent option on , then with one click on each wall you will have drywall and just need to pull the region down at the top the required Reveal (1/2"?).

 

* I guess it's pretty much the same thinking about it, but was thinking this might be easier than dealing with 1/2" thick MR's up at the ceiling.

IF you only care about 3D view you can use a wall covering in the Room DBX, then make a style palette that only applies the wall covering. Then just detail an elevation.

One of these has a wall covering, the other has material regions set to create a 7/16 reveal.
