Tray ceilings are a contemporary architectural feature that have ended up in way too many traditional style homes.  They try to fill our need for unique detail in our otherwise generic interiors. A tray ceiling, which is an inverted or recessed ceiling, creates the illusion of height. Depending on the type of wood and colors you choose, you can make the room look traditional, contemporary or even rustic. Wooden planks or reclaimed wood are great options for that rustic effect.

Check out these amazing design ideas for dining rooms with tray ceilings and enjoy.
