Secrets of the mirror ceiling
The creators and manufacturers of mirror ceilings took on all its mysterious refractions and features. What are the secrets of mirrored ceilings? We will not be mistaken if the main secret is that mirror ceilings significantly improve lighting. The mirror surface perfectly reflects any light.
Reinforced with integrated luminaires, a powerful light output creates uniform and dense lighting. In addition, the mirror ceiling has good moisture resistance, so it can be installed even in the bathroom. The aesthetic component of mirrors is known for a long time. Mirrors and mirror surfaces are simply indispensable for creating a stylish interior not only of ceilings.
Types of mirror ceilings
There are several types of mirror ceilings:
• from the whole mirror
• mirror tiles
• tension mirror ceilings
• mirror plastic panels
• rack ceilings
• Self-adhesive film.
The most effective version of the design is a single mirror without visible joints. But in most cases this is quite an expensive option. Therefore, mirror tiles of various sizes will give the surface of the ceiling coating a "cut" mirror image. Square or rectangular tiles for such mirrors can measure from 300 to 1200 mm. A feature of the construction of ceilings from tiles is the possibility of mounting on minor irregularities or surface protrusions. The color range of mirror tiles will be to the liking of the most captious buyer: bronze, silver, golden or colored tiles look very attractive.
There are two main ways to install mirror ceilings:
• gluing to a solid substrate with glue
• installation with screws.
Special chic give the room stretch ceiling mirrored.
Mirror ceiling tension
What are the advantages of a mirror stretch ceiling? An obvious advantage is that the ceiling overlap during installation does not experience significant load. Mounting the tension "mirror" is made directly to the walls, excluding the heavy-weight mirror construction. In this case, the ceiling panel is installed with one whole piece without additional or separating structures. In addition, the mirror stretch ceiling is a waterproof and waterproof material that provides a high-quality mirror surface for a long time.
The peculiarity of the mirror effect is achieved by using a contrast or darker color of the canvas. The dark glossy ceiling perfectly reflects the original shape of the chandelier or several rows of LED backlight. In addition to the glossy texture of the stretcher, there is a mirror texture. Mirror texture is similar to an aligned sheet of metallized foil and has an excellent reflectivity. The only technical difficulty: such a film can not be welded and is quite "capricious". Any careless touch to the mirror surface of the stretch ceiling will leave visible traces that are difficult to erase. Any "steep" bending of the material, inevitable during the installation, alas! remains visible to the eyes. Prove in the future to his guests that "this is the trace of a comet" will be almost impossible.
Probably, therefore, experienced builders are not eager to install mirror stretch ceilings. A beautiful theoretical opportunity to realize the fantastic texture of a mirror stretch ceiling is used reluctantly.
Therefore, the tension mirror ceilings did not take root.
But suspended mirror ceilings are in deserved demand and respect.
Ceiling mirror suspended
Suspended ceiling mirror is a kind of ceilings of cassette type. The construction consists of a strong and light metal structure, as well as mirror plates of a rectangular configuration. The dimensions of the slab cells can be 600 x 600 mm square and rectangular in shape. Fixing profiles can also be mirrored or painted. For plates, titanium mirrors are used, which for security reasons are reinforced from the outside with a special anti-fragmentation film. The thickness of mirror plates can reach 4 mm. Mirror suspended ceiling is quickly installed and mounted. For installation there is no need to have special knowledge or skills, so the installation can be done independently.

Drapery mix on the ceiling
In addition to installing mirror ceilings, the drapery of the ceiling is attracted by the cloth.
The ancient reception of the decoration of the rooms with cloth, borrowed from the time of Louis XIV, today took on a large scale and gave vent to the imagination of "home designers."
The draped ceiling is an extraordinary technique, with which you can instantly change the perception of the dimensions or proportions of the room. What materials can be used for ceiling draperies? Materials can be used different:
• the majestic royal brocade
• luxurious cardinal velvet

• Passionate atlas.
The ceiling can be draped with curtain fabrics and tapestries, as well as leather and cotton. The color and texture of the fabric will depend on the overall interior of the room. Story or monophonic fabrics allow you to create great compositions.
What needs to be done before choosing a fabric for ceiling hangings?
Draw a sketch of the future location of the drapery. If you suddenly do not like something in the working sketch, diversify the color decisions and decorations. Drapery ceiling should not compete with color saturation or intricate design with walls. It will be correct if the ceiling decor needs to be strengthened with monochrome or light wall wallpaper. For ceilings of rooms with small or medium height, preference is given to light saturated colors.
The main thing is that the drapery material is elastic, light and resistant to contamination. Drapery and fabric decoration will be appropriate in living rooms or rest rooms, bedrooms. Caring for drapery structures is simple: the fabric is removed, cleaned and installed again.
Therefore, for structures designed for cloth drape, lightweight fast-disassembling fastening frames are used. Elegantly decorating the ceiling with mirrors or draperies, you can achieve a stunning design in your apartment. It is checked up on itself!
