Colours on the Ceiling
Your ceiling is approximately 16% of the space in any room but more
often than not it a quick lick of white paint and is then forgotten.
In general, ceilings that are painted a lighter colour than your walls feel higher whilst those that are painted a darker shade feel lower. Lower doesnt have to be a negative though. If done properly and with expert advice from your Gold Coast painter decorator, it can create a beautiful feeling of cosiness.
As with all colors you pick make sure you consider how much natural light comes into the room during those hours when you are most often using it. Bright sunlight reflecting off a soft pink or bright blue ceiling creates a feeling of airiness whereas soft candlelight or a lamplight in a red room makes for a very rich sumptious glow.
The old rule that with low ceilings you must apply a light color can now be disregarded. By simply applying a dark base and then using a glaze of the same color over it, it will soften the effect and keep the ceiling from overpowering the whole room.
Some gorgeous colors that can be used for a ceiling are:
* light, bright blues
* pale, soft apricots and peach tones
* creamy yellow
* soft, warm pinks
* warm tans and caramel shades
