In contrast, darker tones combined with somber-colored ceiling paint add depth and a raw structural expression to the interior scheme.
Faux box beam ceilings add the dynamic illusion of movement to your interior spaces. If lined up synchronously with the frame elements of the furniture within the room, such as a bed or table, the box style faux beams will lead the eye upwards along the width of the ceiling and along the outline back to the floor.
Box beams are reminiscent of historic palaces or forts and can imbue the interiors with an exotic faraway vibe. Smaller spaces, such as bathrooms or even an apartment kitchen can be enhanced with the eye-catching architectural elements of faux box beams to create the illusion of higher, deeper spaces. Alternatively, cavernous rooms are easily broken up with a row of faux ceiling beams. If a room with a vaulted ceiling is too austere or large, faux wood beams can make the space appear more cosy and welcoming.
