A pre-fabricated architectural element has a curved profile and compris es at least one curved brace member. A bendable panel is applied to the curved brace member, bent on this brace member to form the panel with the curved profile, and fastened to the curved brace member. Finally, the pre-fabricate d architectural element comprises a uniform, smooth and regular surface finish on an outer face of the panel opposite to the curved brace member. A method of pre-fabricating this curved-profile architectural element comprises providin g at least one curved brace member, providing a bendable panel, and applying the panel to the brace member. Application of the panel to the brace member comprises forming the panel with the curved profile by bending this panel on the brace member, and fastening the panel to the brace member. To complete the method, an outer face of the panel, opposite to the brace member, is finishe d in a uniform, smooth and regular surface. Preferably, the panel is a generally rigid panel in which laterally adjacent and parallel grooves are cut. Also, the outer face of the panel is finished by applying tape and drywall compound. Advantageously, the panel is applied to a plurality of curved brace membe rs appropriately spaced apart from each other.
