While you might think that a ceiling medallion should be confined to the dining room as a focal point and an anchor for the chandelier, you’d be missing out on the range of what these embellishments can provide in the ambiance for other rooms. Think for a moment about one type of room where people lie down, which puts them in a position to direct their gaze upward. That’s right; bedrooms create an excellent opportunity to admire the dimensional beauty of ceiling medallions. But don’t stop there; consider the decorative impact that an appropriately sized medallion could have on a living room ceiling. In this context, a medallion can add a closure to the room while reflecting the decorative details found in the living room furniture, artistic objects, or even other types of architectural trim.

When placing a ceiling medallion, you also have a choice with color with which to emphasize this interesting detail. For a more subtle look that blends in with the rest of the room, the medallion can be painted in the same color as the ceiling. This choice encourages the eye to take in the dimensional details of the medallion without taking sharp notice due to a contrasting color. The other side of this coin involves painting the ceiling medallion in a color which is different from the rest of the ceiling. This bolder move serves to draw the eye to the ornate beauty of the ceiling medallion itself, much in the same way as a piece of artwork.
