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.

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

  Lovely:                                                                  Amazing:
 Attractive:                                                                Stunning:
Average: Excellent:
Oh, my. Oh, my goodness!


 Ordinary:                                        Extraordinary:

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!

I think our ceilings are going to fall down with no intervention soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! It does make a difference!
ReplyDeleteBut 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!
ReplyDeleteNeat post. Your photos are very effective.
