Raise The Vibe In Your Room With Ceiling Color

Raise The Vibe In Your Room With Ceiling Color

Designers like to say the “fifth wall” of a room is its ceiling. Yet, ceilings are often ignored when planning interior paint projects.

Common design rules provide that color can have the greatest impact on a room’s overall appearance. Adding color to your ceiling can also affect the feeling of a room and alter its entire geometry.

Know When to Stay Neutral

In rooms with wallpaper accents, molding, draperies, and the like, stick with complimentary neutral colors for the ceiling to avoid a “busy” look. Ceiling neutrals can provide a “harmonious color flow” and support the design personality of a room.
