The shapes and sizes of the living room
In many ways, the design of the ceiling will depend on the specific shape and size of the hall.
- Big. In such a living room, the design of the plasterboard ceiling can be very diverse.
- Small. Here, single-level planes with spotlights and ceiling spots, two-level or three-level figured structures made of plasterboard in the form of accents in different parts of the square will be appropriate, for example, place a hexagonal composition under a chandelier or arrange a complex ledge above a fireplace.
- Long and narrow. Various square shapes are suitable here, which visually expand the room.
- With a bay window. Decorating with a multi-level ceiling makes the hall more comfortable and allows you to highlight and play up the bay window space.
- Combined with a kitchen. The different design of the ceiling serves as a kind of visual partition and allows you to conditionally divide the room into two functional zones. Plasterboard structures create unusual zoning contours.
