If you are the owner of an apartment with low ceilings, try to find the positives in the current situation.

Can't cope on your own? Listen to the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", designer Yulia Tychino .

According to the specialist, rooms with high ceilings are more difficult to heat and provide good sound insulation. They often have problems with air circulation, and the costs of painting, decorating and curtains increase several times.

But try changing a light bulb in such rooms – you definitely won’t be able to do it without a high ladder! It’s a completely different matter in apartments with a ceiling height of about two and a half meters.

In addition, such rooms are much cozier, warmer and more comfortable. As for the issue of increasing the ceiling height, there are several interior tricks that can help solve this problem.

For example, you can paint the ceiling a cool white color. It has an interesting feature, visually moving the surfaces away, thus creating the illusion of more space.

The result will be even better if you choose a gloss or semi-gloss paint.

You can go further and paint the ceiling and walls in the same tone. This is a simple but effective technique that will help erase the boundaries between planes and thus increase the space.

Earlier we discussed the topic of artificial plants in the interior.
