Contemporary ceiling design in the kitchen

Have you started a repair in the kitchen or are you just going to upgrade the ceiling? And in the first and in the second case, you should first familiarize yourself with all the materials. In this article, readers will find a description of the most different ways to decorate the old ceiling.

Requirements for the kitchen ceiling:

simplicity in leaving;
the use of environmentally friendly material;
a mandatory requirement for the ceiling in the kitchen is moisture resistance;
if possible, it should hide wiring, ventilation, etc.
An important point on this list is durability.

Plasterboard suspended ceilings

When installing the ceiling from drywall no preparatory work is required (leveling, primer, etc.). Thanks to this design, you can hide communications, wiring, ventilation, and you can also integrate various lights into it. It should be noted that the installation of drywall ceiling is a rather complicated process.

Stretch ceiling

Stretch ceiling - This is a great option for the kitchen. A large assortment of this material is presented on the market, and its installation takes several hours. Presentable appearance and practicality are the main qualities of a stretch ceiling. Also this surface is easy to clean and allows you to mount any type of lighting fixtures. In suspended ceilings, there are many negative qualities. For example: it is very easy to damage (a minor puncture is enough). Also, in order to install the frame on which the film will be held, 10 cm of the ceiling height will have to be donated.

Modularconstructions

Cassette, rack, trellised - this is another material during the installation of which, it is not necessary to pre-prepare the main surface. Here, as in the previous version, it is possible to remove wires and other parts that are not necessary in sight under the design. Such a ceiling is easy to maintain, durable, resistant to aggressive environments. The payment for the abovementioned pleasures will be the "stolen" height of the room (7-10 cm.).

Painting

To finish the ceiling in the kitchen, putty, primer and paint are very often used. By choosing them, the owners of the kitchen will be able to maintain the height of the room. The disadvantages of putty and primer include the fact that the ceiling finish with these materials is carried out in several stages. Because of this, the repair period of the kitchen may be delayed. Also, during operation, owners will not be able to remove pollution from the surface.

Ceiling tile

A more economical solution to this problem areceiling tile. For its laying preliminary preparation of a surface is not required. It hides minor defects of the ceiling, and also has moisture resistant properties. This material has a big drawback - unsightly appearance. On the ceiling, all seams or non-convergence between the tiles will be visible when they are laid poorly.

Combined Ceiling Structures

Note

During the repair, try to create a holistic image of the room. Therefore, choosing any of the above options, you need to take into account how well this or that material will be combined with the repair of the entire room. After all, the ceiling made of plastic panels is unlikely to be combined with expensive furniture in a classic style.
