About the full video
This project details the process of transforming a room with existing black timber beams and woodwork into a brighter, more contemporary space by cleaning, filling, painting walls and ceilings, and then restaining the timber to a natural brown finish. The process involves meticulous masking, multiple coats of paint, and a final wax and stain application to achieve the desired aesthetic change.
