Ceiling "Sky": beautiful options in the interior

Designers have developed many techniques that can create an unusual and fabulous atmosphere indoors. One of the most popular and effective ways is to decorate the sky in the room.

Decorating the ceiling in the form of the sky is not a new technique, but despite this, it remains fresh, in demand and relevant. Drawing in this theme can be varied, from clear blue skies to a ceiling decorated with clouds, branches, birds and other interesting details. When it comes to the night sky, the stars and the moon often flaunt in the background.

Such an element of the interior will perfectly cope with the role of an expressive accent. Such decoration will turn a dull and monotonous design into a stylish and original one. This is exactly the effect that modern consumers want to achieve.

The designers have compiled a list of the advantages of decorating the sky on the ceiling:

• Expressiveness. The decor will not be overlooked. It will delight not only the residents of the house, but also the guests.
• Color variety. If you think that the decor is a combination of white, blue and light blue, then you are wrong. There are about 150 different colors and shades. Combinations of these are also used.
• Disguise. The design will cover defects and communication elements (pipes, cords, etc.).

• Care. Most of the materials used are easy to clean.
• Mounting. Lighting devices, ventilation and decor are easily placed in a volumetric structure.
• Environmental friendliness. Quality materials have an antibacterial effect. Dust will not accumulate and settle on the ceiling, as a result of which the reproduction of the fungus is impossible.
• Versatility. The design looks harmonious in many directions. It can also be used in different rooms of the house.

Experts have identified a number of main advantages, which depend on the type of design and the materials used. There are many decorating techniques, which we will look at next. Each design technique has its own advantages and disadvantages.

You can decorate the starry night sky in the apartment with the help of special fluorescent stickers. This is the cheapest and easiest way to transform your interior. In stores of building and finishing materials, you will find ready-made sets with stickers in the form of stars, planets of crescents and other space objects. For those wishing to show their imagination and creativity, there is fluorescent paper on sale from which you can cut any shape.

Such elements are easily attached to the wallpaper. The installation process takes about an hour. They will look best on a solid background. Installation does not require additional equipment or special compounds. It is a practical and profitable way to transform the look of a room.

The downside of this decoration is that the stickers only glow after sunset. The rest of the time, these are just faded elements.

Wallpaper is a versatile finishing material used to decorate walls and ceilings. With their help, you can stylishly decorate the ceiling without much expense. A simple installation method allows you to stick it yourself.

Three types of material are used for decoration:

• Photowall-paper with the necessary theme.
• Wallpaper made of paper with a special phosphor coating.
• Fluorescent 3D canvases.

Using paints of various colors and shades, you can create a spectacular decor. It can be a blue daytime sky bathed in sunshine, or night skies that are dark, thick and rich in hues. For decoration, acrylic or luminescent paint is most often used (this type of material has a special luminous ability). The drawing will decorate the room at any time of the day or night.

Before starting work, you must first prepare the surface, level it and carefully grind it. This is a guarantee of the safety of the image for many years. A primer is also used. This method is good in that the customer has the opportunity to independently choose a drawing for decorating the ceiling, but only a professional artist can do the work at the proper level.

A well-known technology - stretch ceilings - will help to decorate a spectacular "sky" ceiling in the room. A canvas with the required image is fixed on a special frame. It can be a special durable film or fabric material. This option is one of the most stylish, practical, durable and spectacular. The average lifespan of stretch ceilings is 15 years.

Thanks to the "to order" service, the client can choose the drawing for the canvas himself. Also, buyers choose between single-level and multi-level designs. The first option is more compact and better suited for small rooms, while the second is more attractive and expressive, but takes up more space.

The ZD effect is obtained in two ways:

• Special printing on canvas.
• Volumetric frame (a combination of shapes, lines, recesses and other elements).

To create the desired effect, special lighting technology is used. It is the perfect choice for a brilliant star-studded night sky. If desired, objects can be added dynamics and movements to individual elements, for example, to simulate a star falling or a comet's flight. The only drawback of this decor is the high price. Not everyone can afford the equipment. Professional installation is also required.

Modern models of generators are equipped with software, thanks to which you can change the appearance of the starry sky at will. Also, users can develop and then implement their own scenario for the development of events in heavenly space. The system is controlled by a dedicated controller.

When decorating the starry sky, optical fiber is often used. It is a material in the form of filaments that transmit a luminous flux. A bright glow appears at their tips, especially noticeable in a dark room. Often this technology is combined with a stretch ceiling.

During operation, the threads change shape due to melting, as a result of which the size of the tip and its brightness increase. The glowing dots masterfully imitate stars. To place stars of different sizes on the material, use different fiber diameters. Diffusers will help make the reception more stylish and expressive.

A bright free sky will look perfect in the living room. Such an element will add lightness and freshness to the atmosphere. For the kitchen, this design is also great. Light paints used to decorate the ceiling will perfectly cope with the visual expansion of the room.

The night sky adjusts to relaxation and rest, so it is better to decorate it in the bedroom. Such a reception in the nursery looks original and interesting. To make the decoration look great, the image must be combined with the interior style and overall color scheme.

Professional decorators often combine several of the above techniques to create unique compositions. Stretch ceilings with fiber optics and lighting technology, as well as special equipment with paint, look harmonious in one ensemble.

There is a standard set of paints used for sky-style ceilings.

• Navy blue;
