The plane over your head (pun inexcusable) deserves your attention: from architectural solutions to wallpaper, a ceiling with some added interest brings dimension into the feel of a room. At the very least, add a little wall color paint into the can of ceiling white, especially in two story spaces. Pay attention to the scale of the treatment (architectural and wallpaper pattern) with the room footprint versus the height of the ceiling - done right, the ceiling plays well with the rest of the room...

| Not just for wine cellars anymore |
 |
| Dark color grounds this room and adds drama |
 |
| Circular stenciling adds movement here |
 |
| Tin or embossed paper still a classic |
 |
| Adds oomph to a boxy room |
 |
| Here's a "Don't" - scale and depth overwhelm this space |
 |
| Here it's done right |
 |
| Simple and serene - love how the architectural cornice divided a too-long room into intimate spaces |
 |
| Beautiful copper patina - gilding just works in dining rooms |
 |
| Subtle stripe perfectly doing it's job |
 |
| Classic tray ceiling - imagine how boring if 'ceiling white' was used |
 |
| Wainscotting repeated on ceiling - note scale and pattern mix |
