Add a Dramatic Light Fixture

Dramatic Light Fixture for kitchen ceilings

White kitchen walls can be used to show off a bold light fixture, like Cathie Hong Interiors did in the kitchen above. For this look to work best, put the light bulb in the middle of the room, on top of a table or island.

Expose Post-and-Beam Ceilings for kitchen

Post-and-beam ceilings, which are made up of a long beam and shorter posts that stick out from it, are common in mid-century homes. This simple style gives your kitchen a lot of personality and shows off the craftsmanship of your home.

Add Oak

You could add some long wood slats to the ceiling of your kitchen to give it a rustic and down-to-earth look. This job is also easy to do yourself. Just make sure to get the straightest wood you can find at the home improvement store.

Go Black

A black roof will make your kitchen feel spooky. This bold look isn’t very common, but it can really make a statement. You can paint your ceiling black or put wood slats on it that have a color that is almost black.

Use Thick Trim

Use thick trim to connect your cabinets to your ceiling to make your white kitchen ceiling a little more interesting to look at. We love how this was done in the kitchen above by Becca Interiors. It makes the kitchen look more stylish and put together.

Bring in Some Light

Add some windows to the ceiling of your kitchen to let some light in. We love this style almost everywhere, but skylights look great over the kitchen sink or a prep area that gets a lot of use. Now you don’t have to do the dishes in dim light.

Stick With White

Stick With White

You shouldn’t feel bad about keeping the kitchen roof white. While you have a lot of patterns or textures going on in other places, this can be a great choice. For example, Emily Henderson Design used this in the kitchen above with the shiny tile, wood slat siding, and Persian runner rug.

Vault Your Ceilings

Any room with a vaulted ceiling can feel bigger than it is, even the kitchen. We really like how light and airy it makes this room look. It also keeps a kitchen from feeling too closed in or crowded.

Add Wood

Different kinds of wood can give a plain kitchen roof a lot of personality. You can give your kitchen an exposed-beam look by painting some wood white and putting it on the ceiling, or you can take down a drop ceiling to see the beams below.

Mimic Your Flooring

Kitchen Ceiling Ideas
Ceiling of the kitchen look like floor

Use the floor in your kitchen to help you decide what color to paint your ceiling. Follow Kendall Wilkinson’s lead and make the ceiling look like the floor, like they did in the kitchen above. It doesn’t have to be an exact match; just using the same colors or patterns that were used on the floor is fine.

Match Your Cabinetry

Kitchen cabinets that have been painted are a great choice, but why not use the power of color even more by painting the roof the same color? Your look will be beautiful and full of color.

Go Glam

Kitchen Ceiling Ideas
Fancy kitchen ceiling with trim and light bulb

Make your kitchen ceiling look a little fancier. You could make it more fun by adding fancy trim and a fancy light bulb. Who says kitchens have to be all work and no play? Add a ceiling ornament and paint your ceiling a new color in a soft, fancy pastel. This will make your ceiling look even better.

Let Historical Elements Show

Show off those beautiful old beams in the ceiling of your kitchen if you have them. Wood boards that are left out in the open can make a big statement on their own.

Make Your Kitchen Look Bigger

Kitchen Ceiling Ideas

Use the ceiling to make your kitchen look bigger if it’s small. If you want the kitchen to look bigger, add horizontal beams across the ceiling. If you want the kitchen to look longer, add them across the ceiling.
