Im Looking for a great “sky blue” paint color for an enclosed porch ceiling. Any ideas or favorites?
A.Ahhh, this is a great thing to do on a porch ceiling and very traditional in certain parts of the country. In an enclosed space there is a hierarchy in the way that the space receives light. Floors get the most light, walls the second most and ceilings receive the least…so when picking ceiling colors, always remember that you need to go a bit lighter because of this. Look at the ceiling in your living room, your brain knows it’s white but your eye sees it as a gray.A fantastic blue for your porch ceiling and one which I have used many times with success is Ben Moore’s #1655, Blue Bay Marina.
