Trend Alert: Stripes on Ceilings
I’ve been seeing a slew of stripes on ceilings lately. You? First, I encountered one on Tobi Fairley’s blog when she did wide orange and white stripes for the Hampton Designer Showhouse.
Then I saw the beauty at the Avalon Hotel created by Kelly Wearstler. She added a little interest with varying stripes. Love…
Then this fresh version I spied in Florida Design magazine by designer Mac McGuinness. I love how it really just opens up the space and how the wall color (or glaze?) does not match the yellow directly but compliments it. It’s also a warm choice and flows with the flooring. Beautiful.
Finally, a Chevron variation as seen in the Dreamsicle Day blog.
I know there’s quite a bit of work involved in creating stripes on a ceiling but I do love the end result. What are your thoughts?

Love it — reminds me of a favorite project from years gone by. Striped walls and harlequin diamonds on the ceiling in the small entry way. It looked like a little hat box. When the client sold the house, they told me the buyer decided they wanted it as soon as they saw the walls and ceiling!
