What suggestion would you like lol? Love the sound of what your doing. I love opening skates to create a large great room. Are you asking what to do about the flat ceiling? Is there room above it to vault it? Do you want to keep it and not sure it’ll look ok?

JuneKnow: A cased opening would be about 13'...that's not too big?

O totally hear you. I would love to see more of the floor plan. I’m thinking we do the living room in the vaulted area. The dining and kitchen in non vaulted. But obviously this all has to work practically. So I have no clue if it does.... here is some inspo. What do you think?

LOVE the trusses! It's actually for a family of 6 in need of more kitchen space. The living room is on the other side of the vault and open to the dining room, but sunken down about 36 inches.

Yes me too!!! I hear you! So stick with the current footprint obviously
