Beam Me Up

If you notice in the previous post (photo with the staircase), you'll see a red RSJ beam in the background running along one side of the ceiling.  We're not fans of losing the extra height there by covering it up with plaster board or dry wall.  I found this interesting website for RSJ covers, custom made out of resin to look like an old wood beam.  I was totally down until I requested a quote.  But you gotta hand it to the guy, pretty incredible work.
