The Sky's The Limit: Ceilings! Often
referred to as the 5th wall, the ceiling is often a neglected interior design
element - painted white and forgotten.
Ceiling treatments give character to
a room, taking it out of the ordinary, making it extraordinary.
THE DARK CEILING REFLECTS THE PATTERN OF THE LIGHT FIXTURE |
WALLPAPER CONTINUES TO COVER THE CEILING |
Coffered and beamed ceilings can
make ceilings look higher. Add lighting to cove ceilings to enhance architectural interest.
Painted or wallpapered ceilings make
a room appear larger and add sophistication and elegance to the design scheme. If you're using a mural, extend the design onto the ceiling.
Wallpapering all five ‘walls’ results
in a most attractive jewel box effect. Powder rooms and small bedrooms are
perfect rooms to experiment with this effect.
Architectural materials and designs are
moving up from floors to walls and walls to ceilings. Wood paneling, carved
mdf, wall coverings, and more.
I love to keep long hallways dark,
allowing the space to explode with light when you reach an open living/dining space
with light flooding in through floor to ceiling windows.
Just save mirrored ceilingS for Vegas.
