We LOVE high ceilings. A little extra height can add so many possibilities and also the sense of space in small floor plans.
We’ve traveled a lot in Scandinavia and northern Europe, and here are some inspiring designs and buildings we really like.
Build a tall bed
When you have a tall ceiling it’s important to utilize that extra vertical space.
One way to do that is to build a tall bed.
That way you can add storage underneath the bed which is a great way to get more space when the floor plan is limited.
Tall ceiling with big windows
This space is just beautiful in every way.
We love the big window sections and the spacious staircase is also a very beautiful element.
Notice also how the pendel lamps hand from the ceiling – very beautiful with such a high ceiling.
use the vertical space
This kid’s room is so well done in bright colors with natural materials.
it’s a bunk bed designed for two kids and the room really takes full advantage of the high ceiling.

This bright white apartment makes the most of its high ceilings with an open floor plan and windows all the way to the top letting in natural light.
When possible, a high ceiling with tall windows almost always adds a sense of space in small rooms.
Light Studio With Tall Ceiling
These tall windows adds an almost cathedral-style elegance to the home.
Apartments like this can also be found in old industry quarters and old part of town with a history of production.
We’ve come across this building style both in Scandinavia and at lower Manhattan.
