Ceilings taller than 8 feet give a room an added sense of sophistication.
But, what if there was no ceiling?

Take a look at these "vs" photos that show the same room with a 'regular'
ceiling and with no ceiling at all.

Ceiling                                         vs             No ceiling


The iron stabilizing bars actually add to the charm of this beautiful home.



A regular ceiling:

No ceiling at all:




Do you use your entire attic for storage?  Opening up the unused
space in just room completely changes the dynamic of the house.


  Nice:                                                                      Exceptional:


Even though it takes some planning, exposing beams
to the rafters still allows you to hide electrical wiring.


  Lovely:                                                                  Amazing:




 Attractive:                                                                Stunning:



 Average:                                                                 Excellent:







  Oh, my.                                               Oh, my goodness!






 Ordinary:                                        Extraordinary:
Veranda

Before you start swinging the sledge hammer, consult with a home improvement
contractor as to the advisability of removing your ceiling.  Once you get the
go-ahead, put on your goggles and get dusty!

  3. But where would we put all the junk (that we never use) that is stored up in the loft? These rooms are gorgeous, if only I could persuade husband that we don't need to keep everything!
