It is important to begin with determining the correct thermal saturation of the blue color, starting from criteria such as the presence of daylight in the bathroom and the intensity of artificial light. So, if the shade is chosen too cold, accordingly, the bathroom will be perceived as “cold”, especially when there are no windows in the room and the lamps emit white light. However, if you manage to choose a beautiful heavenly shade for painting your bathroom ceiling, you can use a little white, applying it over the blue with a dry brush or sponge to simulate the lightest clouds on the surface, as well as create the illusion of depth.

If the attached elements are painted a few shades lighter or darker than the color of the ceiling, the bathroom will take on the features of a neoclassical style, which has many advantages.
