How Ceiling Height Impacts Your Home’s Aesthetics

10 January 2024

Ceiling heights can transform a space, but how do you choose what’s right for your home?

In the realm of home design, the height of a ceiling plays a pivotal role in defining the overall feel and spaciousness of your home. Our standard ceiling height is 2550mm, slightly above the industry standard of 2400mm. This deliberate choice is more than just a structural specification; it’s about creating an immediate sense of openness and airiness in every room.

With this standard ceiling height increase, your home will instantly benefit from a more expansive atmosphere. Larger windows allow more natural light, further enhancing the sense of openness. Moreover, this added height offers a subtle yet significant uplift to the overall aesthetic, making spaces feel more luxurious and inviting from the moment you step inside.

But not to worry, if you’re looking for more than a standard ceiling height, we’re here to help you out.

Have you considered taller ceilings?

If you’re envisioning a home with an extra touch of grandeur, have you considered elevating your space with our 2700mm ceiling height? It’s a favourite among our clients who desire added spaciousness and elegance. It is especially effective in open-plan layouts and rooms with large windows. For an even more striking effect, we can raise the ceiling up to 3000 mm+ in select designs, perfect for creating a luxurious atmosphere that truly makes your home your own personal haven of style and comfort.

Make a statement with vaulted, raked, or cathedral ceilings

With their soaring lines and grand scale, these ceilings can transform any room into a space of elegance and opulence. These types of ceilings not only make rooms feel significantly larger but also add a luxurious touch that elevates the entire ambience of your home. Perfect if you’re seeking a home with a sense of majesty and awe. These ceiling styles are a surefire way to create an impactful and luxurious living environment in your dream build.

Feature ceilings

We also offer specialised personalised touches like coffered ceilings and raised entry areas. These features add a sense of grandeur and elegance to your home without the need for high ceilings in every room. With our expertise, we can strategically incorporate these impactful designs in just the right places, ensuring your home feels as you’ve always imagined. It’s all about crafting a space that resonates with your personal style and vision for your dream home.


When deciding which height is right for you, it’s important to consider that:⁠

– Taller ceilings may impact heating/cooling costs.⁠

– ⁠Consider room sizes; high ceilings in smaller rooms need the details just right to ensure the space feels balanced⁠

– ⁠Light fixtures, fans, and decor can influence the feeling of height.⁠


It is also important to consider door heights, skirting selection, and cornices when raising ceiling heights to maintain the right proportions and ensure your home looks balanced.

Whatever your preference, ensure it aligns with your home’s overall design, functionality and budget.
