Paint Wall And Ceiling Same Color
When the ceiling and walls are the same color it can make a room feel smaller or cozier.
Paint wall and ceiling same color. You can hide the odd angles more by going with a darker color as natural shadows will help conceal the upper portions of the ceiling. And although it is certainly beautiful and can lend a crispness and freshness to a room painting your walls trim and even your ceiling all the same color definitely has its advantages. In this situation i chose to paint the ceiling the same as the wall color.
Notice there is no crown molding at the intersection between the ceiling and wall more on this topic here. Occasionally ceilings are painted to match the walls. Somewhere along the line white became the standard color for trim and ceilings.
Painting the walls and ceilings the same color can hide these angles because the transition from the wall to the ceiling is less noticeable. Rooms that have lower ceilings with less surface area are the most commonly painted to match. These include bathrooms closets and sometimes stairways.
Using any color other than white will make the ceiling feel low. This not only downplays any odd angles it also takes the top off the room altogether. Then by painting the top edge of the wall above the molding the same color as the ceiling you create an elegant classy effect.
The paint it all the same design trend is one my favorites this year. If you have very high ceilings you may also want to paint them the same color as the walls. Often in older homes ceilings are painted white regardless of the wall color.
