Hello everyone, I hope you can help me with my design dilemma. We built our house 5 years ago. Unfortunately, I overlooked that the windows (with roller shutters) are not large enough when reviewing the plans. The ceiling height with the finished floor is 2.56m (8 ft 5 in). We have a wall height of 47cm (18.5 inches) above the windows. I am very unhappy with this. Option 1: Lower the ceiling. Option 2: Remove all windows, install a new lintel, and enlarge the windows.
Do you have any other solutions for my problem? The room symmetry just doesn’t feel right to me.
Many thanks
Jasmin

We extended the ceiling white about 5 cm (2 inches) down everywhere. I recently repainted one room and extended it about 20 cm (8 inches) down, since the ceiling height is just under 2.50 m (8 feet 2 inches). Next time I will do this in all rooms! So, above the windows, roughly half painted and above that, ceiling white. That’s my recommendation for you.
