Suppose you decided to make a major overhaul of the ceiling. A very wise solution, because the ceiling either decorates your house or can disfigure it. Investigator, think over everything to the smallest detail before starting this important work.
Suppose you decided to order overhaul of the ceiling. First of all, determine the height of your ceiling. Usually the ceiling can be 2.5 meters high, but there are ceilings and higher. So, if your ceiling has a standard height (2.5 meters), then it is better so that it is white. White color can visually increase the height of the ceiling, in addition, as a good reflection of light, you can save on electricity. If your ceiling is high, then it can either be covered with wallpaper of dark tones, or a special film with imitation of a tree, or some other suitable material.
Keep in mind that if you decorate your ceiling with stucco cornices and different other decorations, then this will visually do your ceiling below than it is actually.
Keep in mind that when choosing material and design for finishing the ceiling, it is important that your ceiling does not stand out too much against the background of the walls and floor of the apartment. It is better if you choose lighter tones for its decoration than the tones of the floor or walls. If you decide to decorate the ceiling with some kind of ornament, then do not paint its entire surface. It will be enough to make such jewelry in the corners, as well as around the lamps. And yet, do not get carried away with too bright and colorful patterns, it will look at least ridiculous.
It is not recommended to use materials for outdoor decoration of your ceiling, which have the properties of air permeability or those that repel moisture. If this rule is violated, then the ceiling will not pass air, but investigatively, it will appear very undesirable signs that you have a dysfunctional microclimate in your apartment.
When choosing in what tones to make your ceiling, make sure that this choice is in harmony with the design of the walls. Get a smooth transition of walls to the ceiling. Thanks to this decision, there will be no sharp differences in the design of the walls of your apartment and ceiling.
It often happens that the ceiling seems to put pressure on a person. This effect can be easily avoided if the joints between the ceiling and the walls are rounded. For this, special products made of plastic, or gypsum are attached at the joints. You can, of course, for the same purpose to completely remake your ceiling into the arched structure, and then sheathe all this structure with finishing materials. But this is a more radical method.
