Let's check if there is a good way to make my low ceiling room interesting for displaying.
Paint them and add some high! That’s the suggestion, but let’s start from the beginning.
High ceiling are wonderful, well and good. But even complicated and require lots of efforts. When you have a very high ceiling, you have to fill up the wall, never ever choose medium high library, for example, or you find yourself in wondering what you can do with all the empty space… at the very end a high ceiling require lots of effort in time, research and money. So, even if I love high ceiling, I have to say that lower room is sometimes easier.
And there are tricks to let your room appear higher: paint the ceiling with a bold color, in makes the room appear bigger and higher, use vertical furniture, from the floor to the very top end, ask the art help, big pieces are better than smaller one because they create an optical effect, mirror for making the space look bigger because of the reflection.
Try running lengths of shelving along the wall, one above the other, another way to make the most of the wall space you have and pushing the eye to the top so that the low level isn’t immediately obvious.
