Large Rooms and High Ceilings

Make your cold room cosy!

Read my interior design information on decorating large rooms and rooms with high ceilings.

Large rooms and high ceilings can easily feel cold, unwelcoming and unfriendly.

But if you learn some professional interior design tips and tricks, you needn't be left out in the cold. Your room can feel cosy and comfortable too.

Large rooms and tall ceilings are a problem which I am sure loads of people would love in their home.

Decorated well, your room can look dramatic and spacious, as well as comforting and warm on a chilly winter evening.

Personally, I would love to have high Victorian ceilings - my last house had such low ceilings it was like living in a cave - and it soon got quite oppressive.

So rejoice in all that lovely space and height!

Read this interior design information, and learn how to turn your cold and unwelcoming room, into a cosy comfort room, you long to spend time in.

Here are my home interior design tips for tall ceilings and large rooms:

• Use a darker color on the ceiling than on the walls
• Use a darker color on the ceiling, and bring it down to picture rail level
• Use large scale, bold patters
• Use lots of interesting, rough or fluffy textures
• If your walls are a dark color already, try using a paler color on the ceiling - but make sure you bring this down to picture rail level
• Fit lower hanging lights and down lighters
• Use dark colors on the walls
• Use warm colors - reds, pinks, oranges, yellows, some purples, some greens
• Use a darker color flooring
• Match the scale of your furniture to the size of your room
• Make sure you include lots of your favourite accessories
