Beams on the ceiling: how not to “load” the interior and make the room cozy
Beams on the ceiling are an ideal solution for those who seek to fill the interior with an atmosphere of rustic warmth, comfort and unity with nature. This element of decor harmoniously looks not only in country houses, but also in city apartments, furnished in a variety of styles. Thanks to the original designs, the room takes on the right shape, and all the design flaws become invisible.
A room with low ceilings should not be overloaded with massive and complex structures. For such rooms, you should choose beams of light shades and give preference to blackboard or plastic instead of timber.
It is best to place the crossbars transversely or along the room. It is important to remember that the transverse arrangement will visually expand the walls and make the room square, while the longitudinal one will be narrower and longer.
For rooms with high ceilings, you can use beams in a variety of variations. “Heavy” structures with many elements, geometric patterns and massive structures are appropriate here.
Ceiling beams can be used for zoning spaces. This interior design looks especially advantageous in living rooms combined with a kitchen or dining room.
An interesting solution for large rooms will be the creation on the ceiling of a kind of roofing structures similar to those that hold the roofs of buildings. This method will make the space voluminous and unusual.
In the design of the ceiling using beams, lighting plays an important role. The chandelier should correspond to the chosen style and harmoniously fit into the interior. The LED strip hidden in the lateral parts of the beams looks original. Thanks to this technique, diffused light creates a relaxing atmosphere, and also makes the design itself visually lighter, adding a feeling of floating in the air.
