It is unclear where the decision to paint the ceiling exclusively white came from, but it is a fact that this technique is still used in most apartments.
According to the observations of Yulia Tychino , an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, this solution is especially often resorted to by owners of Khrushchev-era buildings.
And this is not surprising, since these apartments are usually small and the owners strive to visually increase the space using various techniques, including white color, since it visually raises the ceiling, expands the room and makes it lighter and airier.
However, not only the shade of freshly fallen snow is suitable for this purpose.
Gray, beige, mint, peach, soft blue – all these tones can be useful to you.
The main thing when choosing a shade is to select a color based on how much sunlight enters the room.
If there is little sun, it is better to choose warm colors, and if there is a lot of sun, then cold colors.
Finally, we will share a useful tip that will come in handy if the ceiling is low. Go 20-30 cm up the wall with the chosen shade – this will help visually increase the height of the room.
