Hi there:

We are just beginning construction of a new home with vaulted ceilings and wondered if you would share the construction method to create what appears to be shadow lines around the edge of the ceiling where it meets the wall. Thank you.

Hi there! Its called a kerf or a fry reglet and it defines the room beautifully. It comes at a premium I am afraid. Your will need an architect to design and coordinate it properly for it to work. If money is tight, you can always paint one in!

Your second photo brings me right to the stairwell scene in Hitchcock's "Vertigo," although I realize I'm looking up, not down. It's really rather wonderful. I'm just wondering, looking to the upper left in particular, if it's been recently checked out by a structural engineer. As for paint, I'll be interested to see what others say. For me, who doesn't do a lot of white, I think I actually would stay with a white here. A muddy green might be nice as well, but you'd need to incorporate a bit of lighting -- perhaps uplighting along the beams unseen from below, with something amazing hanging from that cool, crazy peak you have.
