Dark beautiful wooden ceilings with exposed beams but very difficult lighting challenge; love the blue and white coastal feel as I live near the ocean, but cottage small so would like to pick floor that enlargen a great room (kitchen, living room, dining room all combined), white wash ceiling? I have very eclectic furniture and taste as well; would like my small beach cottage to reflect bright mediterranean colors but give clean, airy feel. I have a very large backyard with many palm trees and a Thatch tiki hut with hot tub: too many styles!!!
