PVC film due to the heating in the installation process at first almost always gives off an unpleasant odor. In addition, there is a danger of damaging the film web with sharp objects, the fabric in this sense is much more reliable.

The texture of the fabric is only matte. Such ceilings are good when you need to create a three-dimensional image. It is carried out from two cloths with a photo printing, the bottom transparent, translucent.

Here are the typical errors:

Not taken into account the height of the ceiling. At low levels, an incorrectly chosen design may look too cumbersome, visually reduce the living room. In addition, the design eats up part of the height of the room.

Bright room with a bright surface

The color does not take into account the illumination of the room. Rooms with windows facing the dark side, be sure to trim in light colors.

And in general, the hall should be bright enough, of course, if you do not suffer from misanthropy. You can make only small dark accents.

Little accent with shapes

Little accent with shapes

No coordination with the rest of the interior. Finishing elements should be combined both among themselves and with the rest of the interior.

Surprise your surroundings with such beauty

For example, stucco makes a dissonance with abstract painting, and next to the furniture in the style of techno inappropriate would look like a classic design.

    The article is disclosed at all 99 percent. The drywall ceiling is truly a feast of design and luxury. Photos are simply fascinating, many want such ceilings, but not everyone can afford it, one can say that it is handmade. But there are also disadvantages, the installation of such a ceiling can drag on for several days or even weeks, it all depends on the master who will install it. Of course, this luxury will cost a pretty penny, again, plus the work of the master. But still this ceiling is worth the money. You can choose any color, pattern or picture.
    I personally have such ceilings in all the rooms, mounted them together with my father - he understands these matters and learned a little about me.

    + Pros: Such ceilings give the room a bright and sophisticated look. No doubt it looks - great.
    - Minuses: Expensive, but worth it.

    Drywall is now present in many apartment designs, although it is slightly inferior to the suspended ceiling. I agree that drywall responds well to processing and can bend, but the design for such an attachment has to be done specifically. For installation of drywall install longer than the tension. And now, in general, I apply the combined types of ceilings everywhere, there they use drywall and suspended ceiling. More often two / three-level compositions do just that, a plasterboard frame with lighting and lamps, but the ceiling itself is already stretched. Yes, a banal smooth plasterboard ceiling just does not look, now they are trying to invent something designer. I myself recently made a drywall in the bedroom. The most difficult thing is to throw the skeleton correctly from the profiles, especially if you have invented something non-standard, but it is clearly worth it. And the advantages of gypsum - environmental friendliness and practicality, unlike other ceilings. I am for the combined ceiling - gypsum with tension. This is the perfect choice now for many apartment owners.

    + Pros: Good practical ceiling
    - Minuses: Long installation

  4. Drywall is often used in suspended ceilings. It bends easily, it thereby allows the use of curved structures. I like ceilings that smoothly into the walls. And it looks like a single unit. The highlight is now also represented different. It gives the ceilings beauty. LED lights in my home, decorates my ceiling. Conveniently, there is a backlight control panel. I pressed and you have different combinations of light. Also the main thing is to choose a color. Young people, of course, want more vibrant saturated colors, older people are calm, bedding, the family is average. I personally have a coffered ceiling in the house, it looks gorgeous. I have a big room, for him it fits well. There are film and fabric ceilings. The film they have a clearer image, but they emit an unpleasant smell and you can damage such a ceiling with a sharp object. Fabric in this sense more reliable. For the price of fabric is more expensive. I have a bright room, it should be like this. Finishing elements must be combined. Then the room looks beautiful.

    I think the article is written very true. With everything in it, I agree willingly. I have a drywall ceiling in my house, it is very beautiful and practical.Due to the fact that it is flexible, you can make any shape of the ceiling out of it, such as your fantasy tells you. You can also make a drawing, or an ordinary light ceiling. And for designers it's just a expanse in the works. Also, the lights are now very diverse for him, you can choose the shape of the ceiling. It all depends on the flight of our imagination! I have such a ceiling in almost all the rooms — it looks very nice. It's over, it's expensive, but for the sake of my comfort, I think it's worth the kind of money spent. With such a ceiling, the room looks more modern. Also, it should be installed only by professionals, this is in my opinion, because few people know how to properly fix it. It will not look very nice where the ceilings are low, well, it’s already everyone’s business to make a ceiling in such a room. I'm just a plus for such beauty in the apartment.

    + Pros: Practicality, beauty
    - Minuses: Not

    If you approach everything wisely, then from anything. My friend also has a plasterboard ceiling and I don’t see any problems at all, it looks great and beautiful, the main thing is that the neighbors on top wouldn’t arrange it and then everything will be fine with the ceiling. But the drywall has a significant plus compared with other materials, the fact that it allows the designer to dream and come up with some tonal ideas for the interior. But in general, there are enough options for installing drywall ceilings and all of course quite original. Of course, there are some not very pleasant nuances, like an unpleasant smell, but in general, this drawback can be attributed to the insignificant, as over time the smell goes away, and the beautiful ceiling remains. so I think that the ceiling of plasterboard is a very good option in our time.

    + Pros: Practical to install and use.
    - Minuses: You need to be very careful when installing the ceiling as drywall is still a relatively fragile material, although it bends well.

    Thanks for becoming. I really like drywall ceilings. And it is in the hall that they are most appropriate, since It is here that the most risky design decisions are permissible. The article, by the way, describes in detail the design options for such a ceiling. I especially liked about complex lines. The ceiling with their use looks very original and expensive. However, I personally gypsum ceilings attract a huge variety of options for lighting the room. I love bright halls, I like unusual light sources. A photo with a ceiling-painting on the ceiling simply enraptured me ... I will definitely bring this into my piggy bank of ideas for the next repair.
    Of course, there are downsides. This is an expensive ceiling design option, which the author rightly pointed out. But I am more confused by the long-term project. If the repair has a very limited time (most often this is the case), then you will have to do without drywall. And be sure to take into account the overall design of the hall, so that the ceiling fit into it successfully.

    + Pros: The article reflects all the main nuances
    - Minuses: Some moments I would like to highlight more

    Previously, everything was easier, bought chalk chalked the ceiling, walls and done. Today, people have a choice, you can stretch the ceiling, glue the ceiling tiles, wallpaper, or make it out of drywall. A year ago, my wife and I started repairing, when the question about the ceiling was raised, we opted for a drywall.I decided to do everything myself, so as not to spend extra money on the master, if I only knew that this is a rather complicated process, I would rather have allocated some of the money and hired a professional. I planned to make two rooms in a couple of months, but the work was rather difficult and the whole process took almost a year. I was busy not a little, but the result exceeded all my expectations, now in the living room and the nursery we have elegant ceilings. I made a combined backlight, one main lamp and many small ones, you can turn it on all together, and you can turn on a large one separately and small ones separately. The article is all very well and is described in detail, I recommend reading to those who are just going to update their ceiling, I am sure you will find a lot of useful information for yourself. And who is only in thought, what ceiling do - make drywall, you will not regret!

    + Pros: handsomely
    - Minuses: Long to do, cost

    I have the usual ceiling, and in principle, all of my friends, too, and no one has ever, I have not seen that the ceiling was plasterboard. But once on business I drove to my friend at work, he was just in the apartment in which his repair team was doing, then the ceiling had almost already been installed, then it was made of plasterboard. And the design was similar, as in one of the photos that is in this article. In principle, now is the time that everything develops not by the day, but by the clock and, as I understood. that the use of drywall in the installation of the ceiling is definitely not new, but for some reason I have not met such a ceiling with any of my friends yet)) Although, after about two years I plan to do repairs in my apartment, I will think about the ceiling from drywall))

    + Pros: My friend is just engaged in repairs, he also said that now quite often they began to make ceilings made of plasterboard.
    - Minuses: Very fragile design. If a small child lives in an apartment who plays with a ball, then by accident this ceiling can be damaged.

    When there was a question about updating the ceiling, I considered several options. At first, I wanted to limit myself to the simplest and just pokleit plastic tiles, but after consulting with my wife, we decided to choose something from modern solutions. There were two options: suspended ceilings or a multi-level ceiling made of plasterboard. I called up several offices that install stretch ceilings and realized that I would not be able to keep the budget. And then I began to lean more and more to make a multi-level drywall ceiling with my own hands, as I had previously done something similar. The main difficulty for me was to make the ceilings even. The fact is that my ceiling consists of several slabs and they grab. But after spending time, I still managed to make the ceilings even and the level showed only a small cut. As a refreshment, I used a chandelier and spotlights to separate areas of the apartment. It turned out pretty good.

    + Pros: There are practical recommendations
    - Minuses: Not
