Top 7 Ceilings of Opportunity + Sistine Chapel Parking Garage

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

— December 18, 2007 — Art & Design
Increasingly, decor is being extended to encompass 360 degrees of interiors with innovative artists looking at ceilings as a medium to further enhance the aesthetics of residential and commercial spaces.

If you can imagine a parking garage with ceilings painted like a modernized Sistine Chapel, then you're able to connect with the vision one innovative thinker had at the Global Ideas bank.

He came up with a wonderful solution for graffiti artists in need of a canvas who want their work displayed without vandalizing public or private property. Much more than just offering a surface for their creativity to flow, the ceilings would also provide aesthetic beauty for drivers who leave their cars in the lot.

Those who have ever forgotten which floor they parked on wouldn't have such a hard time had their lot section been painted in a unique way. It would be a lot easier to remember an imagine of an elaborately painted whimsical image than a number painted on a gray post.

The gallery shows the Sistine Chapel replica by an Iowa graffiti artist, Paco Rosic, who renovated a dilapidated building with Michelangelo as his muse.

Check out some of the most creative ceiling designs we've featured on Trend Hunter...
