What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Janell Beals - House of Fifty Mag to Box Beam Ceilings
This is probably the most interesting example I found. The ceilings are very low, and the beams bring the ceiling lower. The natural wood of the beams is mirrored in the cabinetry and flooring tone with a beautiful effect, while there is a slight reflective quality on the ceilng between the beams. I would love to speak with the designer and hear their thoughts on of beams and the issue of the ceiling height. Regardless, the end result is cozy while creating the sense of a room that is expansive, not on height but length.

Exposed wood beams will allow me to blend contemporary rustic theme seamlessly with traditional Japanese architecture AND best of all will allow masking of certain mechanical access points.

what if the trusses can't be completely wrapped to create a vaulted look.... can only the bottom of the trusses be wrapped? The beams would be only going east/west but it may add a few inches of ceiling height in between the trusses. It may prove to be a drywall nightmare. ooooh scary for you maybe?
