Wood is a great material to add style to your home, it can create from rustic to farmhouse, and even modern designs. That being said, I’ve brought here today some beautiful wooden ceiling ideas that will be sure to inspire you in creating a ceiling design for your home remodel project.

Lighten the room

This wooden ceiling design is simple and gorgeous. It has this characteristic of being a lighter toned wood that brings more brightness inside the room. The combination of the light brown slabs with the darker details is something that really catches the eye’s attention. Consider it in your home for a half modern, half cabin-in-the-woods feeling.

Modern vibes

If you want an all modern style and not something to remember a cozy cabin in the woods, this option might be more in your alley. The recessed lighting in this hallway is also something to notice, the lights give this place enough illumination without making your space feel overwhelmed.

More than that, this type of lighting is great if your house has a low ceiling (since they don’t take any extra space hanging down the ceiling).

Slabs

Wooden slabs have a charm that only they can create. Even though this house has a mix of industrial and modern going on, the wooden ceiling installation gave the place something special. Combining with the wooden center table and the logs on island, it’s a perfect design for your home to feel like a vacation retreat.

Instead of going all in with the wooden ceiling idea, you can choose to do something like this instead. Just a few design details that will complete your home decor style and be a huge hit with friends and family. I’m sure everyone will give you compliments on the choice!

Other details you can think about are:

  • Working with textures
  • Exposed wood beams
  • Pale weathered wood

One of my favorite ideas when looking for the best things to bring you here was this coffered and patterned wooden ceiling. You’d have to find the best wooden ceiling contractors to get this done right, but it’d be really really worth it because it is that beautiful.

Also:

If you like to keep your things one of a kind, this ceiling style is definitely the one for you.

Remember the saying “Less is More? This ceiling represents that. Keeping it simple and choosing a wooden ceiling that matches your personal style will already make the house incredible. After all, you’ll be looking at that ceiling pretty much every day, so it’s important that you love it before having a wooden ceiling installation done.

Plank ceiling

Tongue and groove ceiling planks add just as much style as real wood planks would, the difference between them? Tongue and groove planks are cheaper! It’s up to you to decide what’s the best pick for your house (and budget), but whatever you choose, go for it because it’ll be beautiful either way.

Color contrast

This type of ceiling also goes along the line of uniqueness I present before with the coffered and patterned wooden ceiling design. Only this time, you have a color contrast as well. You can either get the wood two different hues, or use a bit of paint to complete the job. There’s a specific type of paint for wood projects, so hiring a professional painter might be the best pick in this case.

Wooden tiles

Did you know wooden tiles are a thing? Because I found out recently and I was like “OMG, really?!. Of course, that reaction can be explained because I love wooden accents and I love tiles - which explains why I take forever to make decor decisions for my own house. Still, the idea of having a wooden ceiling design with tiles is stunning!
