Designing Upward: Adding Character Through Ceiling Styles

Accent walls, tiles, and décor are common factors when thinking about interior design and the architecture of a space, but ceilings also play a large role in design. The impact each ceiling style has on a space is crucial when creating a unique aesthetic. Discover some of our favorite ceiling types and learn their impact on your space.

Coffered ceilings elevate any room, eliciting interest with their elegant grids of recessed panels adorned by decorative moldings. Originating from classical and Renaissance designs, they seamlessly complement modern aesthetics.

Accent walls are timeless and bold, however accent ceilings offer a unique twist on any space. Draw the eye naturally from floor to ceiling with a memorable statement ceiling in the dining room or owner's suite.

Cathedral ceilings, boasting steep slopes and grand arches, bring spaciousness and verticality. They create an awe-inspiring atmosphere, maximize natural light, and offer opportunities for celestial-themed décor. Timeless, stunning, statement are three words that could be used to describe the Cathedral ceiling. This design choice has been a go-to and will not be going out of style anytime soon.

Tray ceilings intrigue with their multi-level, recessed design that adds depth and sophistication. They create an illusion of height, allow for color plays, and provide spaces for ambient lighting while providing an artistic focal point to any room.

Exposed beam ceilings exude rustic charm with visible wooden beams traversing the ceiling, adding warmth and character. They create visual interest, adapt to various style, and offer a canvas for innovative lighting. Consider adding exposed beam to cathedral ceiling to radiate warmth and character.
