We're building a new home with 16' ceiling in the entry. I don't know if a ladder will be high enough to change the lightbulbs in the fixture, plus I don't want to climb up there. What do people do when they have this situation? »
Paneling in this entry stops before it reaches the ceiling, almost reading as an exaggerated wainscoting. Pale lilac walls and a touch of turquoise enhance this room beautifully.
This has to be one of my favorite wainscoting applications. In this two story foyer, the paneling has been installed up to standard ceiling height, visually lowering the ceiling and making the space feel both welcoming and intimate.
