Pressed tin ceiling

Ppor
I have this sunroom that is built-in
It used to be a veranda and has a low ceiling which is sheeted in Masonite or fibro or something it just doesn't feel right. I was going to sheet over it with that faux VJ panel just to blend it in a bit but then recently I started thinking about the option of pressed tin and then paint over it has anyone ever done much stuff with pressed tin?
Other ideas were a ceiling rose or some kind of feature on the vertical bit above those blinds (since removed) eg something fan shaped ie the wall equivalent of a ceiling rose?

 

Could I suggest textured 'pressed tin' wallpaper?
I have in on my stair ceiling.. and its ok.
I hope this helps

 

This stuff?

 

Yes Scott. That's it

 

Does it look like the real deal?

 

Even if you size the ceilings with backing paper, use an expert paper hanger etc the joints will become apparent over time - this isn't a DIY job.

 

Exactly it's not something that I would want to learn on it seems to me that it would be just as easy to put up pressed tin as hang wallpaper but the tin would be better/stronger but I need to check the costs

 

Very expensive

 

Maybe just try a skylight first and bring more natural light into the room..

 

It's actually a pretty light room. Gets loads of morning sun.
The problem is a skylight on one side would look funny and on the other side it actually would just look on to another Gable I got a skylight guy around and he wasn't keen he seem to think it would look a bit weird perhaps I could talk to a different skylight man get another opinion

 

Here is the room on a rainy day (today)

 

Very nice.

You could go modern and architectural and use plywood with express joints (with the backing batons painted black)

 

Thanks but I'm staying in the 1910-30s

 

Is that the era of the house?

 

Yes.
