Lots of cool ideas.
Something I had just thought of by looking at these pics is a faux stone product I saw watching one of the home remodel shows (not that vinyl stick-on stuff from the 70's). What they had was a concrete product that was cast in molds to emulate a variety of real stones, they were thin and installed with common grout. I think even faux stone would be easier on the eyes as well as open a whole world of design/color options.
The ceiling can most likely be raised or removed, the roof above it cannot, but skylight(s) would be no problem. I'll have to get into that corner of the attic to see what's there exactly, but even if I find some non-moveable trusses up there, I figure I can box them in with some type of trim or something and make them look cool.
RickM, good tip on the magazines. My wife is a wonderful woman who knows what she like when she sees it; but she just cannot visualize anything, so pictures are a must for her to see (and approve) these type projects.
40 days till moving day...and they can't come quick enough.
