Faux Bois Ceiling Beams in Asheville NC

Faux Bois is a fancy way of saying “fake wood”. There are so many ways to use this technique but a very common request comes from homeowners that want their white ceiling beams looking like a particular wooden beam.

If you have wood molding or beams that are an undesirable color I can paint them to look like a beautiful new wood. For example in the photos you will notice some beams that were probably milled from poplar which is a common milled lumber used for interior trim. These beams usually get painted a solid trim color. In this scenario, my client wanted a simple walnut colored beam instead of the plain white they were painted.
