Ceiling are known as the forgotten leftovers of the home. Most homes have a old fashion texture ceiling... that can be quit annoying at times. As I am starting to add detail to my Kitchen project, I wonder how I can make the ceiling interesting without forgetting about it. The below pictures show interesting punch of detail.
Beams are the most common look for a ceiling. You bring in a rustic and traditional style without making the room look to traditional The stainless steel appliances help balance the room with a modern touch and the textured cabinets enhance the beams.

Coffered ceilings are a classic look that is used in plenty of period homes. It creates architectural elements to any space and a 3d effect to the ceiling. I like how the floor in the space silhouettes the cofferedceiling in a the same pattern. I just love coffered ceilings!
Metallic on the ceiling? Actually metallic ceilings are very well known and have been used for years. metallic ceilings create a texture look with patterns and lines. Can't forget how it helps bounce light around the space. This is especially important in a kitchen to help have enough light for creating those wonderful family meals every night.

I know it sounds crazy but, yes that is planks on the ceiling. This planks are whitewash planks applied in a horizontal manor. Planks on the ceiling create a linear effect to the space instead of putting it on a floor. After looking at all these ideas, I might have found what I am going to use for my project. Just don't forget to add detail to your leftovers!
