Design Features

When installing the ceiling, the paintings are stretched parallel to each other. To create the desired effect, several layers are mounted. At the same time, the upper parts can have bright and saturated colors, and the lower ones - calm pastel shades, and vice versa. Cutouts are made using a high-precision laser that strips matter so that there is no trace left from its action. The edges remain melted and even, so there is no risk that everything will crawl. It should also be noted that over time they do not sag and for a long time (the account is kept for decades) they retain their original aesthetic properties.

Carved stretch ceilings vary in design and number of colors. Thread can have various parameters and shapes. In this case, the patterns can be arranged both symmetrically and randomly with respect to each other.

Often the upper layers have a matte surface, and the lower ones, on the contrary, are glossy. This combination allows you to create a game of chiaroscuro, emphasizing the depth of the slots. The result is a 3D image.

Installation of carved stretch ceilings involves the use of special fasteners - 3D profiles. Such details allow you to grab and install several paintings at once. The technology has already been patented and is being actively introduced into other areas of construction and repair.

The carved ceiling with backlighting from the LED strip is something stunning. The glow, reflected from glossy surfaces, seems to make the pattern bottomless, creating the effect of volume.

Advantages and disadvantages

Like other types of finishing materials, carved ceilings have their drawbacks and advantages. That's just the enumeration of the first we will begin.

  • Noise absorption. Sounds are scattered in the holes and converted into thermal energy.
  • The materials used are non-combustible, safe for health and have an antistatic effect.
  • All installation work takes only a few hours, unless, of course, we do not mean carved wooden ceilings.
  • All irregularities of concrete slabs and communications are securely hidden and do not spoil the view.
  • An incredible number of variations on the theme of color and shape of the thread.
  • Durability and practicality.
  • Universality.
  • Possibility of installation both in large and in small rooms.
  • Easy to clean.

Yes, as you see, carved constructions have a lot of advantages, but there is only one drawback - a rather high cost. If a meter of a standard cloth costs about 300 rubles, then the price per square meter of carved ceiling ranges from 1100-2500, depending on the degree of "gravity" and the number of layers.

At the end of this article, I would like to note the following fact: during installation, round holes can slightly change in size and shape. The fact is that all paintings are mounted crosswise, based on the selected angle. If the experts do not have sufficient experience, the shape of the circles can shift just in this direction, from which the installation began.
