Consider the Ceiling

Consider the Ceiling

Fiona Says: "I love wallpaper on the ceiling because it is such a large span of space that is usually left undone. That special touch gives the ceiling some interest, adding warmth and dimension to a room."

In this room: Designer Mary Evelyn McKee covered the walls and eaves of her master bedroom with Udaipur by Peter Dunham. "The indigo color worked perfectly with the Fortuny on the bed," says McKee. "A profusion of pattern softens all those angles and blurs the edges of the room."
