exposed beams
Uncovered ceiling supports
Exposed beams are structural or decorative wooden beams left visible rather than hidden behind ceilings or walls.
Once a practical feature of older construction, exposed beams now signal rustic charm or industrial style in interior design: The loft had exposed beams and brick walls.
They may be genuinely structural or purely aesthetic.
