What is ceiling height anyway?

Ceiling height is a term used to represent the vertical distance between the floor and the ceiling of a room. In other words, the total height, taking into account the distance from the floor to the ceiling. 

Architecture and construction professionals define the height of the ceiling in the project according to the feeling that future residents want to convey in the room, such as spaciousness and coziness. 

The ceiling height also guarantees versatility in decoration, as it relates to the style of the room. Classic rooms can have high ceilings, while rustic rooms can exploit low ceilings. 

Today there are three types: standard, double and high ceilings, which can be used in different rooms, with different standards.
