Need help with interior paint decision

Ana

We bought this home 2 months back and have started painting it. One of the big concerns we want to address with paint is to make the ceiling look taller. It is an 8 ft tall ceiling. We just painted one room and I am not sure if we are doing the right thing.
Right now the whole house is painted with semi gloss paint on walls and ceiling. The walls have texture on them so to hide the texture better we chose a flat paint.
I have posted pic of the bedroom. All the colors are Behr premium plus ultra. Wall is Down home in flat and ceiling is Swiss coffee in flat. The baseboard is Swiss coffee in semi gloss.

I don't see a clear separation of color between walls and ceiling but I see the difference between the wall and the baseboard. Why is that?
Also, what should we do to ensure the ceiling looks taller?

Very much appreciate your inputs.

Thank you so much in advance. I just love love this Houz community.

    Hello there,

    It seems like we have a similar question. In my main living area I have Cathedral ceilings which have been painted bright white. The walls are a light shade of grey. And the Baseboards are also the same bright white as the ceiling. I had the back wall painted a greyish blue and I don't like it. So now I want to go with a lighter color on that wall or maybe both walls but I need something and I can't figure out which color to go with. My new color for 2015 is Aqua.
    Whats yours?
