Double height is a particularly interesting architectural element to enhance your interior and create a feeling of space and light. You can particularly exploit this space by arranging a mezzanine, which will offer you additional space while preserving the impression of volume. To highlight the double height, opt for light materials such as light wood or glass that will reflect natural light. Modern, minimalist, or industrial styles will blend perfectly with this type of configuration. You can also play on contrasts by combining darker elements, such as a metal staircase for example. Finally, do not hesitate to install a chandelier or suspended lighting that will enhance this beautiful high ceiling and bring a touch of design to your room.
