The ceiling or false ceiling is often the most undervalued part of a room. Why not look at it as a plain canvas and bring it to life? Choosing the right paint colour for the ceiling can drastically transform the vibe of a space without costing a fortune. See it for yourself – these false ceiling colours recommended by our top designers are the key to creating statement ceilings.
What Type of Paint Is Used For Ceilings?
Usually, flat paints are used to cover the ceilings. However, paints with a matte finish work like magic for ceilings. It prevents reflections, hides the imperfections, does not glare the light back and does not require constant scrubbing or cleaning. Moreover, flat paints are also water-resistant, so feel free to finish them in case you do not prefer the usual choices of the painters: medium gloss that usually goes for the bathroom and kitchen ceilings.

Go For A Timeless White False Ceiling Paint
When asked, “What is the best ceiling paint colour?” Jessica Fernandis, one of DesignCafe’s senior interior designers, immediately responds – White. And we have no reason to doubt it because if you do it right, even a simple, white ceiling is a sight for sore eyes!
White is the undisputed winner when it comes to false ceiling colours for all rooms in a home. White colour’s pristine aura and serene look and the ability to add depth to the ceiling make it the go-to choice. It reflects light and a sense of freshness to the room’s interiors. This is why low-ceiling rooms or spaces that lack natural light look bigger and brighter with white false ceiling colour paint.
Create A Style Statement With Subtle Grey Ceiling Colours For the Bedroom
Want to go beyond the minimalist white look? Opt for a slightly uplifting colour like eggshell or light grey that are easy on the eyes. That way, the ceiling stands out and yet doesn’t ask for too much attention. Nikita Chotrani, Associate Community Manager at DesignCafe, says using light shades for ceiling paint design lends a sleek look and can make rooms look larger than they are. For instance, doesn’t this bedroom with grey false ceiling colours look sophisticated and elegant? Adding a sliding wardrobe in white and light wood laminates is unique and a great way to break the monotony of grey in this bedroom.
