The one architectural detail that completely charms me every time I see it, besides large windows showcasing great views, are box beam ceilings. To me they just announce quality, stating this builder took the time and expense to add beautiful detailing. The millwork adds timeless character and is seen most often in traditionally styled homes, but does occasionally shows up in unexpected places with success.

In addition to adding elegance and detailing that sets a room apart from the crowd, box beam ceilings also present a hidden benefit! The hollow beams are great for installing lights and hiding wires or pipes during a build or remodel. Yet another reason to be a fan of box beam ceilings!
