How to make ‘fifth wall’ rise to occasion Ceilings can be as much a part of design as lights, floors Karen Turner Ottawa Citizen It used to be that the expansive space above our heads was a no man’s land in the world of interior decorating. About the only exciting thing you did to your ceilings was give them a fresh coat of flat, white paint. Not anymore. From bold paint finishes and dramatic wallpapers to wooden beams, embossed tin tiles and decorative grid patterns, a room’s “fifth wall” is now as much a part of the overall design as the lighting, flooring and window treatments. “Tell me, why do the walls get to have all the fun when the ceiling is a blank canvas just waiting for you to explore? White is not the only ceiling colour,” says interior designer Kimberley Seldon during a virtual tour of her Toronto-area home for Benjamin Moore paints. The editor-in-chief for Dabble magazine, Seldon practises what she preaches. In her small powder room, the ceiling is a shimmery silver to give the small space a hit of drama, while the foyer is enveloped in rich black on both the walls and ceiling to create a chic and moody effect.

A grid pattern on a coffered ceiling is an effective way to add detail. “Don’t let that fifth wall intimate you. Throw some colour onto that ceiling and have some fun,” she says. Sarah Richardson is known for whitewashing rooms and adding
pops of colour with lively fabrics, rugs and draperies, but the HGTV host says ceilings should not be overlooked.

One way to create continuous flow is by painting the walls and ceiling in a room the same colour, such as the rich black used here.
