A volume ceiling is a nice feature for a home. Especially in a room that is used daily. Yet so many times it can get lost. It was important to draw attention to this vaulted space. We started with some beams and a bead board on the ceiling. Lights were added to the beams for extra warmth on a gloomy day or at night.

A durable area rug under the table helped warm the space. It also absorbs some of the sound.

The windows let in a lot of light during the day so we certainly didn�t want to cover them. By adding a relaxed roman shade that extended above the actual window frame, the windows looked a lot taller and still provided as much light.

The crowning touch was the chandelier. It is beautiful during the day. It adds light and drama at night. Here is a room for the whole family to enjoy�top to bottom.

We can bring out the special features of your home too.
