• The material of the ceiling covering depends on the ventilation device and the area of ​​the room, because each of the types has different properties, including different moisture resistance. For a small room with a weak hood, a stretch and plastic ceiling is suitable, but wood, paint or fabric with poor ventilation is easy to spoil.

Ceiling design in the bedroom

A bedroom is a room, the main purpose of which is quality sleep and relaxation, and after waking up we first of all see the ceiling, which is why it is so important to make it as comfortable as possible.

Which stretch ceiling to choose for the bedroom?

• Glossy PVC canvases with a mirror surface reflect all objects in the room. If you install the right lighting for the bedroom, it will visually increase, which is why owners of small apartments so often make their choice in favor of this option.
• Matte stretch ceilings are the exact opposite of gloss, they absorb light well and are suitable for any interior. Matte canvases have a rough surface and imitate the effect of a painted coating. They are the perfect complement to a calm design, creating a cozy and homely atmosphere.
• Satin stretch ceilings are a cross between gloss and matte surface, in certain lighting they reflect objects and go well with any style and design.
