This is interesting and very contemporary. Flat intersecting/ overlapping planes with hidden strip lights (actually enhances the effect) Can be done in the big family areas in both basements..

Different ceiling heights distinguishing different areas in a an open plan.. but generally plain flat ceiling in each part. the spot lights are spot on .. highlighting the painting/ the sculpture/ the shelves displaying assorted items.

Whole ceiling has been dropped -except for one part where it can be the actual concrete ceiling.

Wood detail for highest ceiling rooms.

Can add warmth with similar wooden details in the high ceiling rooms - both houses..
Big volumes in all white can become a bit cozy at least visually. without compromising the heights in the few rooms that have very high ceiling.

House 25, 1st floor corridor dropped ceiling - spot lights to illuminate anything hanging on the corridor walls. And if we decide to do the main stair case treads in wood - the top ceiling of the stair case can be in wood also.

Again the dropped ceiling to accommodate the spot lights or down lights.

Neat, Dropped ceiling has these spot lights/ down lights to highlight anything on the walls or directly under them., and the inner edge has the hidden strip light for soft indirect general lighting.
