Soluna Ceiling Options

Triangular A-frame peak with exposed structural truss and cross-beams. The gable creates a strong triangular geometry with the dark wood truss members visible against lighter lining boards. Beams converge at the ridge and extend through to the outdoor terrace.

Single continuous slope with closely-spaced parallel rafters creating a strong directional rhythm. The high wall side allows clerestory windows to flood the space with light. All beams run in one direction — from interior wall out through the glass to the covered terrace, pulling the eye toward the garden. The simplest geometric read.

Flat or gently raised ceiling with intersecting deep wood beams forming a geometric grid of rectangular coffers. The grid pattern extends from interior to exterior without interruption. Most “architectural” of the options — strong, repetitive, and orderly. Works well with recessed lighting between coffers.

Dramatic peaked ceiling with rafters radiating from a central apex. Strong radial geometry creates a pavilion-like feel. The wood rafters fan outward in all directions, giving the space a sense of shelter and focus. Beams extend beyond the walls to the terrace.

Two flat ceiling planes at different heights, connected by a vertical slatted clerestory band that floods the room with natural light from above. Long beams run across the lower plane. The height transition creates visual drama while maintaining clean horizontal lines. Good for tropical ventilation — hot air rises to the upper section.
