Are you pleased you did it?

Did the room feel larger or smaller as a result? I keep reading that it will trick the eye into thinking the ceiling is higher as it can’t readily detect where the walls end and the ceiling starts. But then other articles suggest the opposite - that it will visually lower the ceiling and make the room feel smaller.

Interested to hear from anyone who’s done this.

Thanks. Smile

one-colour walls and ceilings reminds me of old-style but very commonplace apartments in Paris. Usually the woodwork was the same colour too. Looks great.
