Interior House Painting in Kirkwood NY That Solved 18-Foot Wall Challenges in 283 Powerful Hours

Project Description

This residential interior House Painting in Kirkwood NY was designed to breathe new life into a well-loved home while respecting its architectural scale and character. Returning client Staci S. reached out with a clear goal: refresh and modernize the interior without losing warmth or comfort. With soaring 18-foot ceilings, expansive plaster walls, and prominent built-in features, the home required a thoughtful, highly controlled approach.

To support the vision, Brushes Over Broome LLC collaborated closely with Goldenrod Studios, whose design direction guided color placement and tonal balance. The result is a space that feels completely transformed, grounded, and visually elevated from every angle.

Project Scope: Interior House Painting in Kirkwood NY

Main Living Areas and Plaster Walls

The primary living spaces were wrapped in Regal Flat Wind’s Breath, a soft, airy neutral that reacts beautifully to both natural daylight and evening illumination. Across nearly 5,912 square feet of plaster walls, the finish settles into a smooth, velvety surface that minimizes imperfections while enhancing architectural depth. As light moves through the space, the tone shifts gently from warm cream to pale linen, creating a calm, welcoming rhythm throughout the home.

Accent Wall Statements

Strategically placed accent walls were finished in Regal Flat Devonwood Taupe, grounding the open layout with subtle contrast. This hue introduces a quiet sophistication, anchoring furniture arrangements and drawing the eye upward toward the dramatic ceiling height. The matte finish absorbs light just enough to create depth without overpowering the room.

Plaster Ceilings and Ceiling Accents

With ceilings reaching 18 feet high, precision was essential. The plaster ceilings received Ultraspec Flat Devonwood Taupe, allowing the ceiling plane to visually connect with the accent walls. The result is a seamless vertical flow that softens the scale of the room and adds a sense of intentional design rather than stark separation.

Custom Built-Ins and Architectural Features

Custom built-ins were finished in Command Satin Urbane Bronze, delivering a refined contrast against the lighter walls. The satin sheen introduces a gentle reflective quality, highlighting edges and craftsmanship while remaining durable for daily use. These elements now act as visual anchors, adding confidence and structure to the space.

Paints & Products Used

Every product was selected for both performance and aesthetic harmony:

Regal Flat was chosen for walls and accents due to its superior coverage and ability to produce an even, non-distracting finish on plaster surfaces.
Ultraspec Flat provided consistency and control on ceilings, reducing glare while maintaining tonal richness.
Command Satin on the built-ins delivers enhanced durability with a silky finish that resists wear while elevating visual interest through subtle light reflection.
