So today I began the searching for decor ideas for Daniel’s new apartment near the beach in Los Angeles. After a long search he finally found an apartment that fit his criteria – 1. located in his current neighborhood 2. easy parking 3. light & bright 4. not another cookie cutter “resort living” complex. And now I get to decorate it! So this morning I began researching hip, cool, masculine decor. I want something with a modern industrial beachy vibe. So far not much luck but I did find this photograph of a living room with fabulous black ceilings. I love the whole steel gray look with pops of green. And not surprisingly, i do think the ceilings would look even better if they were not only black but also done in black decorative ceiling tiles – (both tin or faux tin will work equally well) to give it a bit more dimension and character.

Now for the tile choices >> My initial concept was to keep the tile design simple but after sleeping on it, I think a touch of pattern would add a bit of warmth and charm to the room. So what tile would i ultimately choose? Moroccan Magic #2425 in satin black.
Schoolhouse – Faux Tin Ceiling Tile – #222 | Constitution Square – Aluminum Ceiling Tile – 24″x24″ – #1221 | General Store – Aluminum Ceiling Tile – 24″x24″ – #2411 | Old Farmhouse Favorite – Aluminum Ceiling Tile – 24″x24″ – #2418 | Moroccan Magic – Aluminum Ceiling Tile – 24″x24″ – #2425 | Alhambra – Faux Tin Ceiling Tile – 24″x24″ – #217
Remember, all decorative ceiling tile designs can always be painted black!
Make it a Beautiful Day!
