5 Incredible Ideas For Ceiling Designs To Make Your Home Stand Out
You don’t have to embark on a complete renovation of your home or break the bank to make your ceiling stand out. There are so many different ceiling designs to accommodate all your needs. So now let your imagination run wild while we present some sweet alternatives to those flat popcorn ceilings .
Now let's take a look at some ceiling designs that are bound to make your home stand out!
A Show-Stopping Ceiling Design
Every ceiling isn't meant to be a showstopper. But doesn't your home deserve at least one ? A show-stopping ceiling is more than just your average uncommon ceiling design. It's a ceiling that your guests can't help but talk about – as soon as they enter the room. You'll know you have one when your ceiling is the first topic of conversation every single time a new person enters your home.
Creating a show-stopping ceiling is not as difficult as you may think. With our help, you'll be able to capture the attention of the room with an elaborate ceiling design in no time. Perhaps one with deep curved lines and extensive detail? Some ceiling options that will give you that show stopper look include Dome Ceilings and Cross Vault Ceilings .
Think outside the box a bit here, though. Our kits look amazing on their own, but with slight installation tweaks or additions, you can really create a masterpiece.
Now that you have permanently changed the structure of your ceiling, you can have fun with the face-value cosmetic changes, such as paint and molding.
Adding Dimension To Your Ceiling
Ceiling designs aren’t only used to make a room more spacious. They can also make a massive space cozier and more intimate. You can achieve this with the use of a drop-down ceiling design.
Usually, the ceilings are installed into the attic space to open up the room. But with the drop-down style, you can use prefabricated kits that add dimension to a room without adding to its volume.
Some ceiling designs that work well to achieve the drop-down effect are the vaulted ceilings - like the Cloister Vault or Groin Vault ceilings, or even a Grome Ceiling .
The Cloister Vault ceiling arches toward the center from a constant spring point along the wall. So, there's no need to make the room even bigger by entering into attic space. The ceiling can start at a lower point in the room to make it cozier. The same goes for the groin vault ceiling.
A Grome Ceiling with a beautiful lighting fixture like a chandelier can also have this effect. The Grome is a combination of Dome and Groin Vault ceilings so it’s the perfect way to add dimension and use up some extra room space with a spectacular design.

A Whole New Look
Sometimes, a small change can make a room look like an entirely different space. For this ceiling design idea, you want a simple ceiling design that spans the length and width of the entire room. This creates a subtle, yet impactful, difference to a room as it doesn’t have a single focal point that draws attention.
Here are some examples:
Barrel Vault
A Barrel Vault can change your room from ordinary to looking like it was plucked out of a Tuscan villa. This ceiling design is one continuous archway spanning the entire room. Often found in hallways, this is the type of design that is a focal point all on its own.

Groin Vault
A Groin Vault can make your space feel like it belongs in a medieval castle. This ceiling design is a subtle beauty. It's the perfect design to span the width and length of a room and give the space a bold, strong atmosphere.
This design is also suited to both large and small spaces. With the drop-down effect, you can create a more intimate space, while popping it up in the attic space can give the room more height for a truly grand effect.

Cove Ceiling
This is a cost-effective, simple design that can transform the entire room. Despite its simplicity, the rounding effect from wall to the ceiling will no doubt get your guests talking.
Plus, by installing a Cove Ceiling , you can avoid expensive molding. This ceiling design makes a statement all on its own.

Types of Ceiling Design Finishes
Your ceiling finish will complete the whole look. You may want to keep colors and textures simple with a more detailed design.
Or, with a simple design like a Dome Ceiling, you may want to add an eye-catching light fixture to finish it off. You could even paint a stunning design or use a bold color to turn the ceiling design into a work of art!
If you want a more rustic look, consider a ceiling design with wood - like a barrel vault ceiling. This is perfect for creating that farmhouse-style atmosphere.
For something clean and simple, you may want a drywall ceiling finish. It is cost-effective, easy to install, and you can paint over it at any time.
