Do Beams have to match the Floor?
If you have a wooden floor, you could be tempted to match its color to that of your ceiling beam. This is entirely up to you, but it is not required.
While matching your beams to your ceiling can help you achieve a harmonious interior design, it can also have a damaging effect on your room in some cases. For example, dark beams combined with dark floors might make your space feel like a dark cave.
