Natural Materials

Considering bringing the outside in as it pertains to your ceilings, Childress says.

"Natural materials, especially stone and reclaimed wood, have long been favorites of mine for their grounding, organic qualities," she says, adding that incorporating these features on the ceiling will result in a warm, timeless environment.
Joyner is partial to wood ceilings and foresees those growing in popularity next year. She explains how wood ceilings instantly bring warmth and richness to a space.

"It’s a great way to lend some texture and interest to a room that is designed to feel more neutral as well," Joyner explains.

Tiled Ceilings

Laouari says that tiled ceilings will soon be taking the design world by storm. Laouari explains how tiling the ceiling is a common trick of the trade that's quickly gaining popularity, which is why it won't be long until it becomes a signature feature in homes everywhere.

Sculptural Plasterwork

Another classical option is sculptural plasterwork, which will add plenty of ornate detailing to any ceiling in the home and has been experiencing a resurgence in the design world, according to Childress.

"These classic, hand-crafted elements introduce a level of artistry and depth that elevates the ceiling to be as stunning as the rest of the room," she says. "It’s a perfect nod to the past while embracing the present."

Wallpapering the ceiling

Wallpapering the ceiling has risen in popularity in recent years and will continue to remain in vogue in 2025, according to Joyner. The color and pattern you select is entirely up to you; go subtle or bold depending on your personal design style.

In addition to looking chic, wallpapering the ceiling and then painting the remaining four walls of a room can be a budget-friendly design tactic, Joyner says, noting that many wallpaper prints are quite expensive.

Jennifer Laouari, the co-founder of Morgan Madison Designs, likes to encompass an entire room in wallpaper when possible, even when square footage is lacking.

"In smaller spaces like foyers, a bold wallpaper wrapping from walls to ceiling creates a fully immersive experience," she says. "No surface is left untouched, ensuring every angle feels considered."

Art of the Joy

While deciding what elephant I would sketch for today’s prompt, I ended up getting lost for a bit watching videos of baby elephants. Their sheer joy and exuberance was intoxicating to watch as they experienced the world around them. Though we don’t actually know what an elephant is feeling precisely, since we don’t speak their language, it’s easy to observe that they approach life with quite a bit of joy. The birth of a baby elephant will cause the entire herd to blare and circle the newborn with excitement. In fact, it’s thought that an elephant’s emotional bond with its family members may actually rival our own. Since, as I said, humans don’t speak elephant, the list of things that we think brings them true joy is rather short. Their enjoyment in life is basically summed up as being with friends and family and playing games. It made me realize that when it comes to true joy in my own life, the list isn’t really much longer than that. While I encounter things that make me smile each and every day, they don’t quite bring the incredible level of delight that can be truly be known as joy. This is, as it turns out, is much rarer than it seems.

AEONIUM ARBOREUM ‘SCHWARZKOPF’ (PURPLE AEONIUM)

Exotic succulents for conservatories or very mild gardens. Plants produce a tall yellow pyramid of flowers. These perennial succulents can only be grown outside in the very mildest of gardens where there is danger of only slight frost and the soil is free draining. Otherwise they make excellent house or conservatory plants. If deprived of light (in winter, particularly), they loose some of their purple-ness and turn green in parts. The purple-ness returns with the return of the sun.

In their native country they sometimes seem to prefer shadier spots. They will tolerate a fair bit of our weaker British sunshine so if you have one growing inside ensure it still gets plenty of light, although not a very sunny windowsill. If grown in a pot make sure you don't over water (easily done) especially in winter and early spring before growth starts, otherwise rot quickly sets in and reduces roots to a mushy mess. However, if this does occur all is not lost. Take the remaining bits of healthy rosette or rosettes, remove the lower rotten section and place them in a seed tray filled with perlite - they should root out quite quickly. Aphids and slugs seem to be the most common pests but apart from that Aeoniums are pretty easy plants to grow and keep.

Propagated by us from cuttings.

Acer japonicum ecnifolium 'Full Moon' (Full Moon Maple)

A slow growing small tree with green leaves and a distinctive spreading habit followed by a domed shade in maturity. Bright red autumn colour. Can reach up to 30ft after 50 years.

Position: Best grown in well drained, moist, neutral to acid soil in light shade. Protect from cold and drying winds in early spring. 'By cuttings'

Agapanthus 'Blue Storm' (Lily of the Nile)

Plant these en masse for maximum impact. The flowers are more much numerous but much less tall (to 4ft max) than in the huge and better known Agapanthus africanus. Drifts of them work wonders. The clue's in the name - it's an enormous amount of blue. It's also hardier than Agapanthus africanus but dies down in the winter. Flowers for several weeks during mid-summer.

Best in sun in any reasonably well drained soil.

A comparative comment on Agapanthuses : The big one (Agapanthus africanus) and the little ones (Agapanthus 'Blue Storm' and 'Snow Storm') cannot really be compared. It's tempting because they're both Agapanthuses and they both have green strappy leaves and either blue or white flowers but the big one stands alone and are so big that they can be used almost like topiary - a pair in pots either side of an entrance for example. There's no reason why you couldn't do the same with the smaller ones but the smaller ones really lend themselves to being planted in drifts - blue or white rivers wending their way through the garden. The point is, one's not comparing like with like.
