Architectural Detail
Beams

Box beams are great in a kitchen, a dining room, or even a small space that needs some extra architectural interest.
Lights can easily be installed with the beams, adding subtle or bright effects.
Another benefit: If the ceiling has damage, beams can cover a multitude of problems.
Moldings
Moldings are generally associated with window and door trim, floors
and tops of walls. But adding molding to the the ceilings as well as perimeter of a room can add a lot of architectural detail, especially in a room with tall ceilings.
Take for example, this molding treatment on the ceiling. It echoes the molding around the adjacent doorway, adding lots of detail and style.
Faux Designs

Paint
Going beyond the white ceiling can be risky so many choose to avoid making a different choice. Rooms with moldings are a great opportunity to experiment with color.
When an accent wall would make a room out of balance, a painted ceiling can be a solution.
A contrasting color on the ceiling can highlight an interesting shaped room.
