Stay On Trend in 2018 with a Statement Ceiling

• Posted on January 12, 2018

One thing you’re really going to love this year is one of the hottest trends for 2018. Statement ceilings are on the up for this year and that means taking your home decor to new heights, literally.

There are a number of ways you can boost your style and enhance your home decorations with a fabulous statement ceiling. For centuries, artists, architects and homebuilders have created spectacular ceilings for homes, palaces and castles, but for 2018 statement ceilings can give your home a modern touch.

Whether you’re after elegance, rustic charm or a retro feel, there’s a statement ceiling out there that will give you just the look you’re after.

Wallpaper

If your ceiling is looking a little bare and you’re after a quick fix to spruce it up then covering it in your favorite wallpaper could be just the thing. However, when you’re choosing wallpaper to go with your existing home decor then you should go for something that will enhance your space and not enclose it.

Delicate patterns in coordinating shades, perhaps with pastel colors, can help to open up your space and tie in your home decorations with the rest of your room. You can boost the overall look by choosing a similar pattern for fabrics in the room, such as with curtains or a rug.

Exposed Beams

Seeing exposed beams on a ceiling is something we’re all familiar with, whether it’s from television, magazines or real life. But an exposed beam ceiling can add a lot of character to your home and give it that warm and cozy feel that will always be on trend.

You don’t always need to have an old home to have wooden beams on your ceiling. Homebuilders will be able to advise you to the best options for your home but you should be able to add beams to almost any room.

You can create a stylish, rustic look with natural wood ceilings and add the beams for depth and interest. Vaulted ceilings can also work well for this. Having your beams in a natural wood can look clean and modern against a white or gray painted ceiling, and will still give you that cozy feel.

Another way to enhance your room with beams is to use a high gloss paint, as this can help to reflect your home decorations, as well as boost the height in your room. This could be a good option if your home decor features elements of the modern, metallic trend.

Geometric Prints

Whether you paint on the prints or use a wall covering, using geometric prints on your ceiling will create a super trendy statement ceiling. This is one way you can get some fun, bold colors into your home decor. Using white as the background to your pattern will help to keep your room feeling more spacious.

As with adding wallpaper to your ceiling, it can be a good idea to use the same pattern on something else in the room, such as on a rug or some cushions, just to tie it all together. You could also take the color from your ceiling pattern and incorporate it in your furniture, such as your couch or dining room chairs.
