Weekly Design Inspiration: Ceiling Wallpaper

One area of our homes that we don’t always pay a lot of attention to is our ceilings.

By adding colour and design to your ceiling, you draw attention upwards in a room, which in turn can make the ceiling feel taller. A great way to achieve this is with wallpaper.

That’s right! Wallpaper isn’t just for walls! It can be used on your ceiling and let me tell you; adding wallpaper to a room can completely transform it and make a huge statement.

Dark and Bold

Adding a bold wallpaper to your ceiling can add the right amount of drama to your space. While this may sound like a design that you would find more in dining rooms, a dark bold ceiling can transform any room, like a study, into an intimate and more sophisticated space.

Floral Patterns

Add a touch of elegance to your room with a floral wallpaper. Darker wallpaper allows you to elevate your room and add intimacy.

Looking for those pops of colour without going as dark? Try a lighter floral pattern or one with brighter colours!

Light and Soft Patterns

If you aren’t quite ready to go bold with a bright colour or design on your ceiling, you can add character and warmth to your rooms with lighter more muted tones. This still draws some attention upwards, while giving the room a calming and light feeling.

Designer Tip: Remember to follow your own personal style when selecting wallpaper. Consider how you want to feel when you enter the room and let that lead you in your choices. If you aren’t quite ready to commit to wallpaper, consider different options, such as a stencil for a similar effect.
