An experimental research was conducted to study the influence of ceiling height of class room on the subjective impression of students, with a special interest in the difference of age and adaptation to the room. Three class rooms with the ceiling height of 2.4m, 2.7m and 3.0m in a elementary school and a junior high school were evaluated on its impression by students of five different grades at the beginning and the end of their temporary staying of two weeks. As a result, older students evaluate the room less spacious, and age show larger effect than the ceiling height and the influence of adaptation. Additionally the results show the possibility of the existence of adequate height for the subjective impression of class room.
