We paint a view of the night sky's constellations in luminous paint on your ceiling, showing all the local constellations as seen on a cloudless night free from light pollution!

-

The paint is not visible during the day but when you turn the light off at night, you are greeted by a spectacular scene (it looks as if someone has stolen your roof)

-

The effect is truly awesome - and being an astronomer I don't use that word lightly! It's also a unique balance of art and science providing an inspiring and romantic effect (imagine enjoying magnificent clear and glorious skies every night) as well as offering a great way of learning the constellations from the warmth of your home

-

As part of OnBrightSky's continuing mission to help bring an understanding of the cosmos we also give you a free astrolabe and starcharts so you can go constellation spotting in your room. You will then be amazed when you take it outside starspotting at night how your ceiling has embedded the natural starscape of constellations into your mind and you begin to recognise some of the patterns and shapes

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost then?

Contact us for a quote or if you want a rough guess - 10ft X 10ft = £170 and 18ft X 18ft = £300. It seems most of our business is referrals and so we will refund you £20 for a second room or recommendation

What does it look like during the day?

Incredibly, it's invisible during the day - even when you get right up close to the ceiling and look, its hard to see where the stars are (yup that makes it pretty tricky to paint!)

Is it those glow in the dark stars you can get in the shops?

No, the materials used are specialist and much more effective than anything you may find in the high street. Those stars may glow for an hour or two if you're lucky. The high quality phosphorescent paint we use can glow all night (well, up to 12 hours anyhow)

Can I see a picture of one you've done then?

Oh. we wish, we wish, we wish, but you know it's like trying to video a dream - impossible to even begin to capture its essence. If you really want to see the effect, get in touch and we'll try to sort out a viewing

How long will it take?

It really depends on the size of the room and the style/accuracy you chose, but it is usually done within 4-6 hours

Isn't that sort of paint radioactive? Am i gonna end up growing extra limbs and looking like an alien myself?

No, unfortunately we don't provide that service! The paint we use is NON-TOXIC and NON-RADIOACTIVE. It is the highest quality, next generation phosphorescent paint which absorbs the UV frequencies in natural light, then stores that energy, and re-emits it slowly (up to about 12 hours) as visible light

Is it going to be an accurate representation of the night sky?

The starscape ceilings are the same as any of the astro-tools we make, (see Astrolabes, Planet Finder, Fridge-Magnet Henges and Biodynamic Calendars) everything is hand crafted with precision, love, attention to detail and if we may say it ourselves , artisanship and skill. So you will find the main constellation stars are surprisingly accurate representations. We must admit though, that most of the minor background stars and the Milky Way, like any effects you may want such as shooting stars, planets, nebulae, rockets, UFOs owe more to, well shall we call it 'artistic interpretation'

Can you do my ceiling please?

Sure, contact me at thebrightonsky@yahoo.com and we'll agree a mutually convenient price, date and time - Dave Molz - http://www.onbrightsky.co.uk/stars.htm
