23 Living Rooms with Wooden Ceilings Exuding a Warm Aura
Wood is the most common materials for the ceiling. Here's how to make it look stylish.
It is important to add a ceiling to a house because it will avoid heat coming from the roof and would also hide the materials you used for roofing. Others intentionally expose the beams and trusses but most homes prefer to cover things up for a neater look. When it comes to ceiling, there are different kinds of materials that you can use. One of the most common materials for the ceiling is wood. You can play with designs and styles for your ceiling. Some just use plain ceiling while others add a more stylish ceiling.
You can use plain ceiling for the bathroom, kitchen or bedroom but most of the time, the living room and dining room would have decorative ceiling designs. But you can still opt to merely use plain ceiling too and make it appear stylish by being creative on how you use the material for it. We have collated some living rooms that made use of wood for their ceiling. If you are planning to add a wooden ceiling to your living area, then this is a good inspiration for you.
