The Finished Ceiling

We ended up going with a dark, semi-gloss bass wood for the ceiling to have a nicer contrast with the floor. It picks up the colours in it nicely. We also thought that it would bring down the ceiling a little bit so it doesn’t feel too much like a cathedral space. It was interesting trying to get to the top with 16′ ceilings, but it’s done now! The sheen does a nice job of bringing the light to the far side of the barn from the south facing windows.
