Ceiling Designs

Due to budget constraints and climate behavior, the ceiling will be done first. The hot climate in the Philippines is very unforgiving and sleeping without a ceiling is unliveable. So, I am contemplating on various ceiling designs I see in the internet.


Our living room is a high ceiling area and I think it'll be worthwhile to put effort in designing this part. The rest of the house will probably have the normal plain ceiling because they are not exposed much unlike the living area.


I'm leaning towards the coved or dome type which will make the living room a more breathable and wide space. Do you sense that I'm addicted to wide and large spaces? hehe.


Here are some designs that I'm considering. I am consulting my newly licensed architect cousin for some design suggestions as well. End of August is my target date for accomplishment.
