Colors To Consider When Having Your Ceilings Painted

One of the more recent, popular painting trends among Massachusetts homeowners is painting their ceilings unique, non-white colors, no matter if it contrasts or matches with the color of the walls. While this trend definitely makes an interior design statement, a question often arises – “Is it right for each room in the home?” Fortunately, Right Track Painting & Sealcoating offers several ceiling-paint options for you to consider. Just keep in mind that opinions do vary.

 

Painting the Ceiling the same Color as the Walls

 

The easiest option for painting a ceiling is to stick with the identical color that the walls are painted. If you select a neutral color, this is a relatively good choice. Having the entire room and ceiling painted the same color can trick the eyes and enable another décor or features to be highlighted. This often gets tricky since painting the ceiling the same color as the room’s walls can create a fallen-in or immersed effect if no other color is used to break things up.

 

Painting the Ceiling a contrasting Color

 

On the opposite end of the spectrum, you could have your ceilings painted a contrasting color to help bounce electrical and natural light around the room while drawing the eyes upward. A contrasting color that is well-chosen can make a positive statement about your home. However, if the color isn’t chosen carefully with other complimentary colors, your space will look less appealing. Though personal choices are respected, our painting team will work with you to ensure that your choices are right for the space being painted.

 

Painting the Ceiling a darker Color

 

A similar choice to using a contrasting color is painting the ceiling darker than the walls. This was one of the more popular trends of 2021 and doesn’t appear to be slowing down. Many design magazines featured this trend because it gives a room a uber chic and modern look while at the same time making the room feel cozier and inviting. On the other hand, if the room has a low ceiling with very little light to spare, it can soak up what little light remains, thereby making it feel claustrophobic and overly dark. Thus, depending upon the height of the ceiling, you can select a color that gives it depth and character.

 

Despite the above choices, white is still the easier go-to option for any room in your home, especially if the room is naturally darker and lacks sufficient light.
