When you should and shouldn't paint your ceiling, according to interior designers

Three images of living rooms with painted ceilings to show when shouldn't you paint your ceiling a colour.

Painted ceilings have eclipsed the trend for the painted arches we saw everywhere last year and even the mighty accent wall that came before that. 

We have a strong suspicion that this interior paint colour trend will be sticking around. Why? Because it can modernise any space, bring some wow factor and even make a small room look bigger in the same way that painted skirting boards can do.
