Our Take On Exposed Beams

Fratantoni Interior Designers • April 14, 2020

This article will discuss how to implement exposed beams into your home.

Many of our clients ask us how they can transform a room into a more dimensional and luxurious space. There is an easy response to this, “Exposed Beams.” Adding exposed beams will create a three dimensional feel in a luxury home. In addition, exposed beams also create a visually appealing element to the space. Our home designs are known for the exquisite attention to detail. Unlike anyone else, we like to put our special touch on every square foot of our clients homes. No part is left untouched.

Whether Fratantoni Interior Designers are designing your new build or helping you revamp your existing home, we love to design custom ceilings. Furthermore, our designs can be customized based on the unique style of the home. This custom look can go from a French Country Kitchen to a Modern Living Room. Wood beams naturally can be implemented in almost any design.

Here are some examples of our favorite rooms with Exposed Beams:

We painted these beams white to match the overall aesthetic of this luxury kitchen.

We love this French Villa living room. We were able to continue the French theme throughout by adding iron details onto the beams. Take a look at more photos from this project.
