The ceiling in any room and attracts attention. Moreover, in the main room of the apartment or private home – in the hall. To hide the defects on carelessly repaired surface will not work, because the lighting will be «treacherously» to show them on public display. And the time when our citizens were happy just clean, whitewashed the ceiling, long past.In our everyday life has entered this previously unknown concept of the ceiling design.
What materials can be used for the device of ceilings in the room? Will not talk about the paint that the repair works have segodnyashnaya chalk whitewash. Lower and ceiling polystyrene panels. It’s cheap and practical enough material for finishing, but it is unlikely in the case of its application it is possible to talk about beautiful design.

However, the drywall, as any material has its drawbacks:
- A hanging cage «eat» not less than 40 mm high in the hall. In rooms with low ceilings using plasterboard is hardly appropriate.

- Time for the installation of plasterboard structures will require much more than the installation of stretch ceiling. Dust and dirt will be a lot more.
Variety of materials ↑
Structurally, they are divided into smooth (have one level) and complex (multi-level).
Of course, the layered ceiling gives endless possibilities to create an original design and combination of device of the lighting system.

Design of a hinged ceiling in the hall ↑
Hinged design – design with a frame that may be lined with slabs of type «Armstrong», aluminum slats, wood or plastic paneling. By design, suspended plasterboard ceiling also applies to attachments.
Designs of this type in the halls of the significantly less popular. Lining severely limits decorative solutions. Panel «Armstrong» associated with office and production facilities, and aluminum rack – with bathrooms.
However, sound-absorbing paneling provide the opportunity to bring designs to almost any curved shape and create a very unusual interior design.
