Ceiling – Dark Blue Ceiling Invokes A Feeling While Keeping Focus On The Key Elements

Ceiling – This room has a spectacular view.  My client wanted doors around the perimeter of the room. We built an entertainment cabinet on one wall. Rather than typical door casing, which would look horrible, I directed the finish carpenter to continue the design of the cabinet through the doors making them apart of the cabinetry. In between each door is fluted molding and corbels, connected to a continuous crown molding and and base. All the woodwork received the same finish. This design ensured the woodwork is appreciated (it’s beautiful) but not become the focal point. The view needs to remain the focal point. Now for the ceiling. Color speaks and I listen. Dark blue spoke up. My clients thought I was crazy but agreed to try it. They loved it. The blue color invokes a feeling of warmth, anchors the woodwork and is not a distraction to the view.
