In most modern apartments and rental houses you find that the ceilings are low and can make you feel so closed in.well,guess  what?with these simple decorating tricks you can make the ceilings feel  less closed in.

1. Paint the ceilings white :-white will create a sense of height and will reflect a lot of light hence gives a sense of increased height.
   
2. Use vertical stripes on the walls :- yes,vertical stripes will help provide the appearance of height and look beautiful at the same time.stripes are also a hot trend this year.So you can either use a wallpaper with vertical stripes printed on or you can paint vertical stripes on the walls,whatever seems like a cheaper option.
   
   
   
   
3.   Avoid anything that protrudes from the ceiling:- this means avoid things like ceiling fans and overhead  lights cause they make the ceiling feel closer
   
4. Go for wall lighting instead of overhead lighting:- the lighting source has to be even across the ceiling.so its best to opt for wall lighting
   
5. Hang full length curtains:- full-length curtains or drapes should be hang as high to the ceiling as possible, preferably from ceiling height.This will draw the eyes straight up the long, vertical line, creating a sense of height.
   
6. Hang artwork up high:-this tricks the eye to look up and works especially for vertical artwork and photos.so artwork hang up high brings the impression of height.
   
7. Use large mirrors:- large mirrors that take up most of the wall are amazing at making the ceiling look high
