Default Interior paint opinions -- walls vs. ceilings

Should I use a darker white on the ceilings and a bright white on the
walls
or would I be better off using the bright white on the ceilings and a
slightly darker white on the walls? Yes, this question may strike some as
ridiculous but it's driving me crazy.


To most people, darker on the bottom, lighter on the top seems more natural
and pleasing. This is true of contrasting as well as complimentary colors.
Bright white walls will probably look like a sterile operating room, but if
that is what you like . . . . .
