Painted Ceilings in Interior Design

March 21, 2016 Leslie Price

Have you ever considered painting a ceiling with a bright or moody color?

I recently painted the ceiling in my guest bath a moody blue/green along with the walls, trim and moulding (in the above photo) and I'm really happy with it!  

Paint is the easiest way to change a look in interior design and very affordable too.  Color on the ceiling does not necessarily make a room look smaller -- in my opinion, it adds drama and brings the eye up!

I recommend a painted ceiling in either a bedroom or a bathroom.  It's a smaller visual commitment than doing a dining, living or family room.  Choose a color that is repeated in your interior like this pink echoed on the ceiling from custom bedding below:

Or, add a bright pop of color to a neutral design scheme like this gorgeous bathroom:

Either way, a painted ceiling can be a show stopper and make your space look visually interesting!

Interior Design: Before & After Bathroom Remodel

My clients have two young daughters and needed this bathroom to more efficient with storage and space. They wanted a timeless design in their 100 year old home that would transition with the girls as they grow from playing in the bathtub as toddlers, to maximizing space needed for makeup, hairdryers, etc as they become teenagers.

Interior Design: A Pretty Place for Reading

In this project, in Orinda, Ca., I was tasked with coming up with a design solution for a landing space at the top of a stairwell. It was a space that was too small for a loveseat and chairs, and too big and open to use as a home office.
