Rooms with low ceilings usually look cramped and uncomfortable.

But you can cheat: find a finishing material that helps “deceive the eye.”

If you make the right choice, you can visually raise the ceiling.

But what kind of wallpaper allows you to achieve this result?

This question was answered by Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior.

Wallpaper with diamonds

These geometric shapes create an interesting visual effect: the wall begins to appear higher.

The ceiling is visually “raised”. As a result, the room no longer feels cramped.

Wallpaper with vertical stripes

The use of paper finishing material with vertical stripes also contributes to the visual “stretching” of the walls.

The main thing is to avoid an abundance of bright colors. Such wallpaper should be neutral.

There is one more rule: the wider the stripes, the better.

Bright wallpaper

If you can’t find wallpaper with diamonds or vertical stripes, then you should opt for a material that is bright and rich.

In this case, an interesting effect will arise: the eye-catching wallpaper will attract attention and distract from the low ceiling.
