Nick Schiffer explains how the NS Builders team installed 8-inch solid hemlock beams in the living room to "fake" a gable roof design, detailing how the beams were attached to the framing above through anchoring and adhesive. He also shares how the beams aesthetic fits in with the rest of the home design.
