The ceiling has been framed. A structure was put in place for the corrugated metal to be screwed to. The origami ceiling was divided into three triangles.
Next, the (non-load bearing) beams and corrugated went up. All the angles made for interesting times... and for the record -- a compound miter saw alone doesn't cut it. Oh, Home Depot Fairy... please bring us a sliding compound saw!
Just a small section of the ceiling remains to be completed. Here you can see where the three triangles meet the tippy-top of the tall wall. Inside the triangles, more beams are added to cover the seams of the corrugated.
We have to do a bit of finishing work yet... the edges where the corrugated meets the beadboard and plank walls needs to be covered. But really, just another day of "construction" to do before we can start trimwork. Oh, and running the electricity up to his room...
Bowie already loves hanging out in his room. We are certain he will love the finished product.

That looks like quite a project! I bet little guy is excited.
I love this look! It's perfect for his room and I am quite impressed with your (and all the helpers) skills! Thanks for the update because I feared the sky had fallen in.
