One of the most important steps in home improvement is creating a ceiling design. A properly selected ceiling covering can not only complement and emphasize the interior favorably, but also help hide irregularities and imperfections, as well as rationally place lighting fixtures.

Stretch ceiling

A variety of stretch ceilings do not lose their popularity, and designers continue to delight us with new and interesting designs. Among the variety of this type of ceiling covering, several types can be distinguished. One of the prominent types are carved ceilings made of two or more stretched panels, one of which serves as a background for an advantageous contrast.

As lighting devices, in order to emphasize unusual patterns, they use backlighting or LED strip. You can also highlight stretch ceilings with a 3-d effect, which will perfectly fit into the interior in a modern style. The main thing here is to maintain a balance, as well as dilute the interior with glass, darkened and glossy surfaces.

Soaring ceilings are stretch ceilings with a transparent film, which is stretched over the frame. In the normal state, such ceilings do not stand out, however, when you turn on an even glow, it begins to play with new colors, looks modern and bewitching. Well, with the help of mirrored stretch ceilings, the room can be given a feeling of lightness, freshness and infinity.

Dropped ceilings

Suspended ceilings are structures, most often made of plasterboard, that are held on metal or, less often, on wooden slats, and leave space between them. Such ceilings are of two types: passable and non-passable. Walk-through ceilings are designed with easy access to the space inside the structure for technical work. Non-passable ceilings have a solid structure, therefore, to access the interior space, the ceiling will have to be disassembled.

Suspended ceilings can be installed, if necessary, to hide large irregularities in the ceiling, insulate it, hide communications or make soundproofing.

Bare concrete

The concrete ceiling looks stylish and rough. It will perfectly fit into industrial, minimalism or loft interiors. Most often, such ceilings are made in strict monochrome colors, in white, gray or dark gray colors.

The disadvantages of such a ceiling covering are: difficulties in choosing lighting fixtures, since not many can fit in style, and also the fact that such a ceiling visually narrows the space and looks inappropriate in small rooms with low ceilings. However, there are many advantages, the main of which, of course, is its practicality. It has excellent sound insulation and fire resistance, and is also environmentally friendly and cheap.

Wooden ceilings look incredible in country houses and cottages, emphasizing the ecological style and the trend of connection with nature. Wooden structures are also versatile, and such ceilings are full of their diversity. They are also durable and practical, as they retain their appearance for many years after installation and appear to be a fairly solid structure. It is easy to keep clean and has a lower installation cost than many other types of ceiling coverings.
