Stretch ceiling "sky": beautiful ideas in the interior
Choosing a stretch ceiling for decorating a room, I want to add variety to the interior by decorating the surface with an unusual pattern. One of the relevant topics in demand when performing finishing work is photo printing with the image of the sky.
Consider decorating the ceiling space with such a print.
Peculiarities
Stretch ceiling with the image of the sky is an original structure that gives the ceiling surface a unique look. The coating is even and smooth. The structure can be installed in different ways. Sometimes the coating is simply glued to the base, so the surface is pre-leveled.
If the ceiling is a slide or a complex structure is conceived, then it is attached to the frame, leveling the panel to the level.
The uniqueness of the picture lies in the aesthetic perception. This image can be different: light, cloudy, clear, night. The sky can be clear, gloomy, birds are often visible against the general background. Moreover, any drawing carries a charge of positive energy. Even if the image conveys a picture of a gloomy or star-studded night sky, it does not cause unpleasant emotions.
This pattern can be used in the interior of different rooms. Unlike other analogues, it is appropriate in a nursery, bedroom, living room, hallway, corridor, study.
The uniqueness of the image is the fact that it looks harmoniously in the form of a monolithic canvas on the entire plane and as a partial accent. This print especially attracts children: when framing the ceiling area under the starry sky and LED spot lighting, this design immerses you in a special atmosphere, visually erasing the boundaries of the ceiling.
What matters is the background color, through which the desired mood is conveyed. Due to modern technologies accurate reproduction of shades is possible, which adds realism to the image.
The daytime sky can be sunny, blue, cornflower blue, decorated with clouds. The night sky is distinguished by black and blue shades, an admixture of purple and black with transparent white stains. The sky at sunset can be sandy, with a soft glow of red tones. Sometimes there are gray clouds or rainbow colors are captured on it.
Views
The existing varieties of stretch ceilings differ in texture. It can be matte and glossy:
- Gloss is able to visually expand the boundaries of the room in which the stretch ceiling is installed. At the same time, this material is not able to convey the clarity of the pattern, since it has a mirror effect. On such a surface, all objects that are in this room will be visible.
- Matt the analog is more expressive. It is more pleasant to look at it: all the colors are rendered as clearly as possible, the drawing is not blurred, there is no mirror effect.
Fabric varieties are created from polyurethane-impregnated textiles. They are the golden mean between glossy and matte varieties. They are characterized by a large width of the panel (5 m) and the absence of seams.
Today there are a lot of design techniques for decorating the ceiling with the image of the sky.It can be a canvas with photo printing, using optical fiber, LEDs, mixing photo printing and optical fiber, imitation of stars using Swarovski crystals. An interesting version of the design is a stretch ceiling with an image applied with luminescent paint.
Suspended panels
This stylistic device presupposes a complex technical construction. The panel can be manufactured at the factory, it is installed assembled. The main component of this design is a special disc made of a particularly durable composite, on the surface of which airbrushing or full-color printing is applied.
Fiber optic threads are embedded in the disc, due to which, when turned on, the radiance of the stars is transmitted via the remote control. Sometimes, for completeness of sensations, a sound module is mounted in the structure, due to which cosmic sounds are transmitted... The remote control allows you to adjust the intensity of the glow and the tone of the background.
Backlit
This type is a tension ceiling with LED strip installed inside... In the process of work, it shines through the canvas, therefore, against the general background, the effect of the shining of stars and sun rays is created.
A canvas with a light background glows brighter, and due to the backlight, the print looks realistic.
With photo printing and fiber optic
Such registration is the most time consuming and expensive. For manufacturing, textiles are used, on which the image of the sky is printed. Then the optical fiber threads are fixed. The lighting elements are attached from the outside through special holes. The location of the threads is arbitrary, as is the thickness used.
The mixing of threads looks especially beautiful, allowing you to create the effect of shining stars of different sizes against the sky at night. This approach to decorating the ceiling area can be carried out by means of an emitter with a powerful lamp or separate lamps of different colors. LEDs are used that shine at the ends of the threads, they are attached to the desired length. The total number of such threads can be 130-150 pcs.
With luminescent paint
This type of stretch ceiling is budgetary. The transparent ink is applied by means of photographic printing onto a film coating. During the day, such a sky is practically unremarkable. In the evening and at night, the surface is transformed: the ceiling is literally dotted with twinkling stars.
Such a stretch covering can beautify a nursery.
Today, manufacturers have learned how to make harmless paints, therefore, during operation, the luminescent type of surface will not emit toxic substances.
With Starpins pins and Swarovski crystals
This option is created on the basis of a PVC canvas with or without a pattern, as well as using an LED strip, which usually illuminates the pins.
During the installation process, the film coating is pierced in places where glow is needed, then the canvas is stretched and pins (plain or colored) are inserted. The light from the tape strikes the pins and makes them glow. The lenses require fiber optic filaments. In this way, they create the effect of diffused radiance.
Advantages
- These structures are fireproof. They are easy to maintain, practical and environmentally friendly. Due to modern technologies today, photo printing with the image of the sky can be applied to matte, glossy, transparent and translucent types of surfaces.
- It is noteworthy that in the process of creating photo printing, high-quality paints are used that do not fade over time, even if the ceiling is mounted in a room flooded with sunlight. Even after 10 years, the surface will be as good as new. It will not crack or dry out.
Due to the large assortment of patterns, the choice allows you to fit this decor in different stylistic directions, including modern, classic, ethnic design directions.
- Using the backlight technology, you can achieve a different perception of the pattern. The surface of the stretch ceiling can be decorated with a constant, intermittent, wave-like glow, which, if desired, can change the shade of the luminous flux. You can create additional effects (for example, a falling comet, aurora borealis). Of course, these varieties are more expensive, but they are worth the investment.
How to choose for different rooms?
To make this decor of the ceiling area appropriate, it is worth considering a few nuances:
- Regardless of the chosen theme, you should like it initially. It is impossible to get used to the pattern if the print subconsciously evokes negativity.
- The drawing should correspond to the temperament and age of the household whose room he decorates.
- The size of the picture matters: massive patterns that distort reality are unacceptable, they create a pressing effect, causing a feeling of their own insignificance (for example, huge birds are excluded).
- It is preferable to use a universal version of the picture, in which there is no reference to the season. It is better if the photo print will convey the pattern of the sky with clouds without massive branches with foliage.
- Do not overload the room with color if it is poorly lit: this makes the space visually heavier and smaller.
The use of the pattern for different rooms is different:
- For example, an up-to-date solution for bedroom design is an imitation of the starry sky. This is the case when the print on the ceiling will not compete with the photo wallpaper that accentuates the headboard area. To create the illusion of space, you can use related tones of the color palette to paint the ceiling and wall. It is worth considering: the tone of the walls should be lighter.
- Living room it is better not to overload with blackness. The canvas of the evening sky with the first stars that appear here looks good here. If you choose something darker for this room, there is a risk of changing the relaxing atmosphere to gloomy and sleepy. If the main color of the interior is light, an excessively bright and dark spot will create a pressure effect. To prevent this, it is worth choosing a drawing of the sky in the morning or in the afternoon with sunbeams.
- If this finish is planned for children's room, you can use stylization, taking into account the age of the child. If it is very small, you can choose a photo print with a cartoon print for the individual design features of the ceiling area. At the location, you can decorate the sun by surrounding it with clouds. If the design is developed for a teenager, gender is taken into account: girls are closer to light compositions. Boys are attracted by space.
At the same time, it is even better if the drawing is partial, not occupying the entire plane of the ceiling: this makes it easier to mount spotlights and not overload the space with an abundance of bright spots.
- For the hallway and the corridor, a dark sky view is undesirable.
- The same goes for kitchenif you want to decorate the ceiling with this finish. To create the desired atmosphere, here you can use the simplest view or a partial fragment of the drawing, playing with the edges of the print through molding or other framing. If you decorate the ceiling area with a smaller pattern and make the contours to the edges of the walls white, this will visually increase the boundaries of the ceiling, which is especially important in rooms with a lack of space.
