While we spend hours agonizing about which paint color to use on our walls, the ceiling typically gets little to no thought at all. How many times have you reached for that can of matte white paint to cover a ceiling in an otherwise colorful room? We’re making a case for the fifth wall. A colorful ceiling can entirely transform a space—and instantly make it feel unique and memorable.

What Color To Choose For The Ceiling?

You may actually choose any color you like but support it with some touches and accents of the same color in decor, whether it’s upholstery, rugs, curtains or other stuff. The bolder or darker color you choose, the lower the ceilings will seem, keep it in mind. If you go for pastels, especially glossy pastels, you will get a higher ceiling feel.
