POLL: Exposed beams or painted beams?
Q

I chose other because I think it depends on the building. Both photos above (and Victoria Harrison's with her post) are gorgeous and building appropriate - is there anything worse than exposed beams in the wrong setting? Maybe painted ones in the wrong setting, lol! Either way, in the wrong setting exposed or painted beams send the wrong message.

Your ceiling height and if any of its a pitched roof might make it difficult/impossible for a lowered ceiling, but assuming that you have the headroom then your builder may well be happy to quote for the additional works now rather than later, the extra costs incurred may be a factor in your decision making.

Thanks so much for the helpful replies! It is wooden (hollow) and is and it looks the same in the room it leads to (visible on both sides). When I bought the house it was covered in a yellow gloss paint which I started removing, but i need to finish it – hence the odd mix of colours on it at the moment! I haven't reduced the size of the doorway (not to say it hasn't been reduced in the past) but I agree perhaps there were double doors there at one point. Excuse the bad photo, I just found this on my phone from a few days back mid-plaster. I had all the walls downstairs skimmed as they were covered with a textured plaster/artex type thing (both walls and ceiling!) Interesting re: the skylight and frieze, I hadn't thought of that! I guess I could just leave it as an unusual feature.

How you have it seems the best option, that is painted the same colour as your ceiling. Many new large kitchens have to have support beams. Would you consider painting the end wall or perhaps adding some colourful tiles and shelving? Otherwise, as has already been suggested, you can distract by adding colour, such as art, to the walls.
