Deciding whether to go square set or cornice really depends on the style of the home you are building or renovating 

Cornice is designed to provide an attractive finish at the junction of the wall and ceiling ( Picture 1) where as with a square set finish the wall and ceiling joins meet for a modern square finish ( Picture 2 ) 

Cornice is predominantly used in classic or period style homes whereas square set is a favourite in modern homes but ultimately the decision is yours
