That's an easy one. Of course the answer is no, but very few people veer away from this standard. If you're feeling adventurous and want to break away from the pack here are some suggestions.
Consider practicalities
When you decide to paint your ceiling a colour you need to think about how that colour will flow into other rooms both physically and visually.
Is there a place (e.g., molding or beam) where you can stop the colour?
The ceiling in the kitchen is on a different plane than the living room, thus providing an easy break for painting.
Consider ceiling heightHow will the colour look when viewed from the next room or rooms?
Will you have to change the colour again when you paint your walls?
Chances are you will. Are you up to painting several coats to cover a colour?
Is your ceiling in good condition?
Flaws will show up more with darker colours.
How high is your ceiling? Nine feet or above will provide lots of height for darker or warmer colours.
However, if you have standard ceilings (8 feet) and your rooms are smallish you might consider lighter, cooler colours to help the ceiling recede and give the feeling of greater distance.
