Abstract
A horizontally extending suspended ceiling segment that appears to float in space.Support hangers in an upper tier connect to a grid that forms a lower tier, and cantilever the outward ends of the beams in the lower tier. A perimeter trim strip surrounds the suspended ceiling segment, on the outward ends of the beams in the grid. The support hangers, and hanger wires that support the suspended ceiling segment, are hidden behind the line of sight of a viewer positioned below the segment.
