Adviсe

Before considering all possible options in detail, it is necessary to identify the basic recommendations that should be followed.

1. When planning the design and the amount that will be set aside for the renovation of the bedroom, do not forget about the ceiling;
2. Please note that the style and color should fit harmoniously into the interior as a whole. Experts recommend using neutral colors to decorate ceilings that will not overly strain the eye. These include beige, white, light blue.

Color palette

In the bedroom, it is preferable to create an environment that will promote good rest and sound sleep. Correct use of shades will relieve emotional stress.

The classic solution is a white ceiling. This option is universal. This color will give a feeling of cleanliness and visually enlarge the room. However, the bedroom may seem cold and sterile.

To add a little color, you should give preference to other colors:

• beige;
• sand;
• coffee with milk;
• light gray;
• Ivory;
• blue;
• mint;
• pistachio;
• lavender;
• lilac;
• pale pink.

Any pastel colors look good in the bedroom. A warm, light palette will make the interior homely. Cool shades will create a relaxed atmosphere. In large rooms, dark, calm colors are appropriate: brown, chocolate, caramel, grape, cornflower blue, moss green, etc.

Expert opinion

Olga Kovalenko

Since 2010 I have been engaged in interior design and architectural design.

It is not recommended to choose a blue, purple, black ceiling for the bedroom, even if the room is spacious. These are active colors that have a depressing effect.

Options

Obviously, you can use all sorts of options for finishing the ceiling. Let's consider each of them separately.

Minimalism

Minimalism will be a good basis for another modern design in the living room combined with the kitchen. At the same time, the rooms are kept in perfect order and unnecessary things are hidden. To maintain minimalism in the kitchen, you will need cabinets and drawers in which you can put dishes and other kitchen utensils.

• Beautiful bedrooms
• Scandinavian bedroom
• Built-in bedroom

Wallpaper

This is an option for those who prefer to pay tribute to traditions. Our grandparents also used this method to decorate the ceiling. This was largely due to the inability to purchase any other material.

However, the market now offers such a variety of wallpapers that it’s dizzying. What kind of wallpaper does the market offer:

• bamboo;
• non-woven;
• paper;

This is not a complete list, but, in any case, it becomes obvious that the choice is indeed very large.

Pros of wallpaper

If you are in doubt and cannot decide whether to purchase wallpaper for the ceiling in the bedroom, check out the advantages of this material:

1. If it is thick wallpaper, then it will be able to disguise irregularities and depressions in the walls;
2. A significant advantage is the relatively low price of wallpaper;
3. You can hang wallpaper yourself, without the help of specialists.

Cons of wallpaper

Despite the fact that wallpaper can be called a truly universal option, there are some disadvantages. Let's look at them in more detail:

1. After some time, the wallpaper may begin to peel off from the ceiling;
2. If the apartment is flooded, there is a high risk that the wallpaper will simply fall off the ceiling.

Styles

There are many current trends and design ideas. The kitchen-living room in a modern style looks simple and minimalistic.

At the same time, it is not necessary to strictly adhere to any style; you can take its main idea as a basis and cleverly play with it with accessories and other details.

Whitewash

This is the traditional and budget method that many families still use. It also has disadvantages and advantages.

Pros of whitewashing

1. This is an affordable and budget method that does not require large financial costs.
2. The method is quite easy to implement without recourse to the help of specialists.
3. You can whitewash the ceiling in a relatively short period of time.

Cons of whitewashing

Like other options, this method has some significant disadvantages, among them we highlight the following:

This method cannot be called modern; it does not give a feeling of luxury to the room. Of course, for some styles this option will be suitable and will look quite presentable, but still, for a modern style this approach cannot be called relevant;

If you want to update the ceiling, you will have to wash off the whitewash from the ceiling, and this is a very difficult and painful task that requires a lot of time and patience.

Partitions

The interior of the kitchen and living room begins to be thought out from the junction of the two zones.

Here are some of the ways and objects that delimit space:
• installation of a bar counter;
• kitchen island;
• big table;
• installation of a low partition.

Designers advise installing a wide counter, since you can sit at it like at a regular table, and high chairs are quite suitable for the whole family.

However, in small rooms (16 sq m), narrow counters are installed. Kitchen islands are convenient to use, but are only suitable for large kitchen-dining rooms (25 sq m or 30 sq m). Capital low partitions are installed only if it has been decided in advance what they will be used for (for example, as a TV stand).

Drywall

Plasterboard ceilings for bedrooms have recently become popular among people. This material can reproduce a ceiling of absolutely any shape; with the help of plasterboard you can realize quite bold ideas and ceiling ideas in the bedroom.

Pros of drywall

Consider the positive aspects that a plasterboard structure can realize.

1. Drywall will help get rid of unevenness and depressions on the ceiling. Even obvious defects can be hidden from prying eyes.
2. Drywall will also make it possible to remove wires and other communication elements;
3. This method will provide opportunities for embedding lamps and other lighting items.

Minuses

Obviously, in order to install drywall on the ceiling, you will have to use additional space. Accordingly, the area of ​​the room will become significantly smaller. This is the drawback that causes many to abandon this option altogether.

Expanded polystyrene panels

These panels are characterized by a high level of thermal insulation and sound insulation, as well as resistance to various external influences. They are very attractive in appearance and fit into any interior. Thanks to the use of modern technologies for the production of polystyrene foam, panels made from it acquire a surface that imitates stone, wood, etc. Installation of the panels is simple and easy, so this work can be done by a person who has no experience in finishing.

The main advantages of this finishing material were appreciated by ordinary buyers and professional craftsmen who install ceiling coverings. Since they have many advantages, they significantly increase the comfort in the room and its appearance. Such ceiling tiles are not afraid of moisture, so they are readily used in showers, toilets, bathrooms, as well as in kitchens and other rooms where there is high humidity. Since polystyrene foam has minimal weight, it can be mounted on any ceiling.

This quality is of high value for those rooms where the floors are not able to withstand heavy loads. In addition, foam panels are easy to work with, they can be easily cut into pieces and adjusted to the desired shape. In addition, the range of these products is huge, because there are hundreds of colors, patterns and sizes of slabs suitable for any interior. For example, the owner can decorate the ceiling with smooth tiles, or with patterns or ornaments.

Stretch ceiling

Stretch ceilings in the bedroom are an almost universal phenomenon. Most people prefer this option. This is a modern bedroom ceiling that offers a huge number of options. You can depict an autumn landscape or clouds on the ceiling, or you can make a strict plain ceiling without any frills.

Advantages of a stretch ceiling

1. Variety of execution options. This was mentioned above.
2. A suspended ceiling is a material that can protect property from flooding. If your upstairs neighbors haven't turned off the faucet, the ceiling will hold water. In order to get rid of it, you just need to make a small hole in it so that excess water flows out into a special, pre-prepared container.

Disadvantages of a stretch ceiling

Probably, many have already guessed that this method requires a large financial investment. In addition, only professionals who have many years of experience can make a suspended ceiling in an apartment.

Another significant disadvantage is that suspended ceilings are very sensitive to the effects of sharp objects. Even an unsuccessful champagne cork can tear such a ceiling, and the stretch ceiling section cannot be repaired.

Zoning

Designers do not advise giving in to fashion trends and copying design ideas without taking into account dimensions, location and other nuances. Before planning and arranging furniture, every detail is thought through.

There are several simple rules that experts advise you to follow:

• Let the room have natural light. To do this, remove excess walls (except for load-bearing ones).
• If the rooms in the apartment are small (12 sq. m or 16 sq. m), the layout of the kitchen combined with the dining room will be the right solution.
• If the ventilation system is not designed correctly, the smell of food will spread throughout the apartment.

Options

For creative bedroom owners, you can make graffiti on the ceiling. It is best to purchase aerosol paint for these purposes.

Artistic painting. To make the bedroom look unusual and original, you can invite an artist to draw a picture. These can be delightful orchids or delicate peonies. The main thing is that they fit into the overall atmosphere of the room and do not discord with the design.

If you yourself are a good drawer, then why don’t you carry out this procedure yourself? You can use a stencil if you are afraid of making a mistake.

Recently, many people who have started renovations in the bedroom decide to install a two-level ceiling in the bedroom. This design looks very original and elegant. Despite the apparent difficulty of execution, it is quite possible to do it yourself.

Finishing

If the kitchen combined with the living room has the same floor covering, then there are no special rules for carrying out the work. When combining different materials, take into account in advance where they will be joined.

For example, laminate flooring creates unsightly joints with tiles. The main thing is that the floor is flat without curved joints, as they will be noticeable.

Kitchen cabinets that are mounted on the walls should reach the ceilings. In some cases, craftsmen “lower” the ceiling with plasterboard.

Lighting

Light has a great influence on people's mood. Let's consider the question of what the ceiling lighting in the bedroom should be like.

Glass ceilings in the bedroom have recently become increasingly popular. The main recommendations for installing such lamps are to be located at a distance of 20 cm when positioned along the walls. If you intend to arrange the lamps in a chaotic manner, then the distance should not be less than 30 cm.

Ceiling lighting in the bedroom can be achieved using fluorescent lamps. But it is worth noting that they have quite impressive sizes, which not everyone can afford. As a rule, they should be located around the perimeter of the bedroom and diffuse light towards the center.

You can also use long LED lamps. They have a number of significant advantages. Firstly, they can be used for a long time, and they also do not heat up. Of course, this option also has a high cost, which not everyone can afford. They are quite expensive, however, the quality will exceed all expectations.

A chandelier is a traditional lighting option that has been around for many years. In principle, if the chandelier corresponds to the overall design and fits harmoniously into the design of the room, then why not. This is a completely acceptable option. If you are planning to make a room in a retro style, then some exquisite large chandelier will fit into the interior very organically.

As mentioned earlier, the interior of the ceiling in the bedroom should largely correspond to the main design of the room. If this is minimalism, then the ceiling can be made in white with a spot ceiling.

If the room is decorated in Provence style, then why not paint images with flowers on the ceiling. If you are making a bedroom in a high-tech style, it is recommended to make the ceiling in a neutral color with an original tint.

In the article we looked at the answer to the question, which bedroom ceilings are better. Obviously, there is no one-size-fits-all approach that will suit everyone.

It is necessary to take into account the taste, age, financial well-being of the owner of the bedroom, and his creative abilities. There are too many factors. In any case, we have looked at the most common finishing and design options; your task is to choose the most preferable option and begin implementing it in your bedroom. The main thing is the desire and enthusiasm that you show when creating the room of your dreams.

Wood decoration

Wood is the highest quality natural material, which is always valued, because anything can be made from it. Any wooden thing looks very beautiful, is distinguished by its originality and high external qualities. Some people believe that wood is the most suitable material for floors and walls, but today it is widely used for ceilings. This coating will provide excellent sound and thermal insulation, which is very important for any home.

There is a large selection of wood species, ranging from the most budget options to the most valuable. Thanks to this assortment, every home owner will choose the most suitable finish for the ceiling. The main feature of the tree is its environmental friendliness, the presence of original patterns and a unique natural aroma. That is why each room has its own design, unlike the others. There is another important detail in favor of natural material, this is its ability to diffuse light. Almost all designers know this nuance, so they create the effect of natural shading in their interiors, where the play of shadow and light is the main decoration technique.

Neoclassical

Even popular music has echoes of ancient motifs. The same can be said about the design, in which classic details are framed in a fashionable design.

This style is characterized by symmetrical lines, framed mirrors, arched openings, and antique accents. All this is complemented by fashionable finishing materials and accessories. Neoclassicism combines sleek modern details with traditional combinations.
