Black Ceiling Tiles for the Home<\/h1>\n

Take Your Ceiling to New Heights With Black Paint<\/h2>\n

Most people don\u2019t consider how much of an impact a professionally-painted black ceiling can have on their space. Think of it as your fifth wall! A bold coat of black paint on your ceiling can help you design around tall, soaring ceilings to make the space feel warm and cozy. A black ceiling can also make existing architectural elements pop or unsightly basement fixtures blend into the background.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s tough being a ceiling. They\u2019re one of the most overlooked and underutilized surfaces in the interior design world. People spend a lot of time agonizing over paint color swatches for the walls of their home without paying much, if any, mind to what\u2019s above. The average ceiling doesn\u2019t get a lot of love\u2013\u2013usually just a coat of flat white paint. A new color trend is hoping you\u2019ll do just the opposite by considering your ceiling as the \u201cfifth wall\u201d and painting it black.<\/p>\n

We know what you\u2019re thinking. \u201cBlack?\u2026on the ceiling?\u201d It\u2019s definitely a polarizing color trend, but stay with us. A dramatic flat black ceiling applied by a skilled painting professional may be the dramatic effect you never knew your space needed.<\/p>\n

When You Have Too Much Room<\/h2>\n

\"sputnik<\/p>\n

High ceilings are a huge selling point of homes. It\u2019s something you and your realtor probably ooh and aah\u2019d over when you first toured as a prospective buyer. Researchers have even found evidence that high ceilings\u2013\u2013anything above the standard 8-foot height\u2013\u2013make people feel like they have more freedom and creativity.<\/p>\n

People were more likely to say a room was beautiful if it had a high ceiling compared with a low ceiling. So, our brains love high ceilings but they can also create some unique design challenges. A professional painting project can help make the room feel unified.<\/p>\n

A room with soaring ceilings can feel sterile and empty if left unaddressed. Ceilings are most often painted white to reflect light, which in turn makes a room feel brighter and larger. Rooms with black ceilings can better connect what\u2019s up with what\u2019s down to create a cozy, intimate space.<\/p>\n

A dark ceiling paint color like Benjamin Moore\u2019s Midnight (2131-20) can add warmth and make your ceiling appear as if it were lower which in turn allows you to have lots of vertical space without sacrificing on coziness. Other design elements like tall shelving, long window treatments that run floor to ceiling and high-hanging artwork can further unite the room and eliminate all that abundant dead space.<\/p>\n

Create a Dramatic Divide<\/h2>\n

Open concept floor plans are another home selling point that can make even the smallest of homes feel larger than they actually are. Eliminating dividing walls to have one single living space between your kitchen, living room and dining room allows natural light to flow freely through your home. It\u2019s also helpful when you\u2019re keeping an eye on active little kids or entertaining a crowd.<\/p>\n

\u201cOpen floor plans are highly sought after, but once people move in it can take some work to figure out how to make the home work best for your lifestyle,\u201d says Dennis Merillat, owner of CertaPro Painters\u00ae of Burnsville.\u201cCreating a black color block on part of the ceiling is a creative way to express division of space while not losing any floor space with furniture you don\u2019t actually want.\u201d<\/p>\n

Open floor plans can make it tricky to distinguish one area\u2019s function from another when physical boundaries are absent. People usually create separation with area rugs, furniture configurations, shelving or room dividers. Instead of taking up more of your living space with clunky dividers or furniture you don\u2019t actually love, look up for the solution.<\/p>\n

You can use black paint to define an area. Think of it as an area rug on your ceiling. It\u2019s a creative solution to divide up the space so you\u2019re free to decorate however you want. Light or neutral colors work best for furnishings when going dark on your ceiling. It\u2019s worth investing in a dramatic light fixture to showcase your bold ceiling choice.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s All in the (Architectural) Details\"luxurious<\/h2>\n

Some ceilings already have some distinguishing characteristics before the interior painting project begins. If you\u2019re lucky enough to have some amazing architectural elements built into your space, a black ceiling can highlight your home\u2019s character. For example, having black paint applied in the white space between coffered ceiling beams, millwork or crown molding can add visual interest, greater depth and emphasize the uniqueness of the details. Beamed, barrel-vault and cathedral ceilings are other good candidates for a black color scheme.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you have beams that create geometric shapes on your ceiling like squares or rectangles, adding black to the equation is the perfect opportunity to really make those pop and create a statement on your ceiling,\u201d says Dennis Merillat, owner of CertaPro Painters\u00ae of Burnsville. \u201cPainting existing beams white and what\u2019s around them black creates a dramatic contrast that allows each component to be noticed.\u201d<\/p>\n

When you want paint applied around beautiful beams or ornate molding, it\u2019s important the application is done skillfully to protect the existing elements of your home from drips and spills. The team at CertaPro Painters\u00ae delivers meticulous interior painting project, so you can ensure the black paint gets where it needs to be and nowhere else.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t feel left out if you don\u2019t have any existing architectural elements to play off of in your current space. A black ceiling design adds architectural interest where none existed all on its own!<\/p>\n

Ceilings That Can Hide The Basement Mess\"Caviar<\/h2>\n

Partially finished basement ceilings often have chunky ductwork, unsightly pipes and structural bracing that you\u2019d rather not have out in the open. An ugly ceiling is not something you want to always have to look at if you spend a lot of time in your basement. Don\u2019t spend money on drywall that will lower the height of your ceiling. Adding your basement ceiling onto your list of rooms for a professional interior painting project is a solution to the mess that won\u2019t rob you of headroom.<\/p>\n

\"Black<\/p>\n

A basement ceiling painted black is great at concealing obscure stains and spots as well as all the \u201cstuff\u201d that is running along its ceiling. Exposed ceilings are on-trend right now. A fresh pop of black color can help you achieve that industrial style.<\/p>\n

A black basement ceiling can also help with functionality for those who have a home theater concept in their basement. Black speakers and a projector can be mounted and blend into the paint color. A dark ceiling allows you to focus your attention on that night\u2019s movie instead of on everything that\u2019s happening above your head. Sherwin-Williams\u2019 Caviar (SW6990) is a dark hue that can help you accomplish your basement paintin g goals. Or if you want to stick with the traditional paint colors like Black (2 132-10) by Benjamin Moore, this will add an easily workable color scheme to whatever your design style is.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a Celestial Space<\/h2>\n

While a black ceiling can add sophistication and elegance to a room, it can also add a ton of fun to your child\u2019s bedroom. If your child is obsessed with all things outer space, think about how much they would enjoy falling asleep under a sky full of stars right in their bedroom. Have the professionals at CertaPro Painters\u00ae paint their ceiling black and surprise them by adding glow-in-the-dark star decals. Sherwin-Williams\u2019 Tricorn Black (SW6258) would make a great choice to send your little one into space. It\u2019s a themed room that can easily be transitioned into a more sophisticated space once they outgrow their childhood theme.<\/p>\n

We also love working black into a child or teen\u2019s bedroom on the walls with Benjamin Moore\u2019s chalkboard paint.<\/p>\n
