My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

How was the ceiling created?

11 years ago
Is the ceiling glass and open to the sky or is it light paneling with woodwork? We have a similar hallway in a prairie style home that currently feels like a tunnel. How did you build the ceiling?
Thanks!

    Thank you for your question, Debra. What you see is an acrylic diffuser supported by the wood screens, which are attached to the walls of a shaft up to a skylight on the roof. The inside of the shaft is painted drywall.

    Thank you. We have a similar hallway (bookcases still to be removed) in a house we are purchasing. This will greatly open up this hallway
