Kinds
The chosen finishing material will affect the overall picture of the room. For modern trends, a suspended ceiling or a plasterboard structure is suitable. In a rustic or eco-style, a wooden or slatted option looks good. A painted or suspended ceiling will look harmonious in a conservative interior.
Tensioner
The installation technology consists of stretching the heated fabric over the entire surface, fixing it in special clamps. There are two types: harpoon and harpoonless, differing in the method of fastening. The technology allows you to choose almost any color. Lighting can be spot lighting or an unusual chandelier.
Painting
For painting you will need a perfectly flat surface. The whole process takes place in three stages: preparation, priming and painting. The main advantage of this finishing option is the variety of shades of all colors. The interior is laconic and warm. Any type of chandelier can illuminate a room.
Suspension
There are several types of structures, for example cassette, Griliato, plasterboard. They differ in the coating material and method of fastening, but the base is common, assembly is carried out and attached to a metal frame.
From plasterboard
This technology allows you to level any surface, as well as create multi-level compositions. Drywall sheets are attached to a pre-prepared metal profile structure. The downside of the plasterboard finishing technique is the forced lowering of the ceiling level.
Wallpapering
A simple finishing method, wallpaper allows you to decorate surfaces not only in one color, but also with various patterns and designs. Pasting is performed on a previously leveled surface.

Wood
Wood trim stands out from other options. The material is environmentally friendly and can have a complex shape. The downside is susceptibility to humidity. This type of finish looks good in a living room or bedroom in country, shabby chic and Scandinavian style.
Glossy, matte or satin?
Glossy
A ceiling with a glossy surface has reflective properties, which allows you to visually increase the area of the room. A wide range of colors is available, which allows you to create the desired interior. In difficult lighting, glare of light will play on the mirror surface.
The disadvantage of gloss is the small width of the canvas; the seam line will be visible. Glossy surfaces are often used when decorating interiors in a modern style.

Matte
Matte canvas is suitable for finishing the ceiling in a loft or classic style; such a solution will not attract attention, but will only complement the overall picture of the room. The matte canvas is wider than the glossy one, which avoids joints. The beige color on a matte surface looks advantageous - it creates a velvety appearance.
Satin ceiling
A satin ceiling is something in between; the surface does not have a mirror effect, but has a special shine. Visually the surface looks silky.

Let's consider why a beige ceiling is attractive

Despite the variety of nuances, beige is perceived neutrally by people. It is ideal for creating an apartment background. Colorists believe that all its shades are devoid of emotionality, so they symbolize balance. Their predominance in the interior promotes relaxation, eliminating stress and tension. They create a warm, sincere and cozy environment.
Beige ceiling in the interior
Beige is a natural color that occurs in nature. It perfectly complements the same natural tones: yellow, blue, green, brown, etc. It is considered a noble color that creates a classic style - restrained, elegant, but warm. At the same time, a beige stretch ceiling can be used in unusual interiors. Light green, raspberry and other rich colors look advantageous against its background.
In popularity, beige coatings are not inferior to white ones. Manufacturers offer tensile structures in various shades of the palette: sand, cream, golden, yellow-peach, cocoa with milk, gray-beige, etc. If your goal is to create an elegant but cozy interior, use one of the listed colors.
Beige stretch ceilings are in high demand and have a number of advantages. This design can have a different style solution. It can be installed in the living room, kitchen, hallway, bedroom, bathroom or children's room. Thanks to the peculiarities of the tone, the room will seem more spacious, voluminous and bright. This quality of the beige ceiling makes it indispensable for miniature rooms. The stretch ceiling will have a soft shade, which will create an atmosphere of comfort in the room. It will unobtrusively highlight the colors of other surfaces. This is a practical and unobtrusive color that is pleasant to people. You can refresh the tone of the stretch fabric at any time by adding bright accents to the interior.
Experts believe that beige is the most natural shade, reminiscent of the color of sand or skin. Together with terracotta, blue, green and gray it creates beautiful combinations. To create a pleasant and elegant environment, combine it with pastel colors, brown and white. Unusual design solutions can be obtained by using rich shades next to beige. For example, a cream stretch ceiling can be complemented with red, purple, crimson, coral or another color. The beige coating will not dominate the interior, but will act as a wonderful background for other materials. In the hall, a touch of sophistication will be added by the ceiling, which has a shade of coffee with milk or ivory.
Photos in the interior of the rooms
Bedroom
Warm shades are great for the bedroom; the interior is enveloped in warmth and soft light. To decorate a classic bedroom, the ceiling can be matte with an unusual chandelier or multi-tiered satin. A modern interior will be decorated with a beige ceiling in combination with dark furniture.
Kitchen
In city apartments, kitchens often have a small area, so to save space, you should use a light palette for decoration. The optimal color would be white or beige. Glossy surfaces will help to increase the area due to the mirror effect.
Living room
In the living room you can use an unusual shaped design that defines the seating area. Cream shades match a living room in a classic or modern style. By adding wooden beams, the interior will immediately look different - closer to a rustic style.

Children's

Bathroom and toilet
In the bathtub, it is better to use a slatted structure made of metal panels, this will help avoid the problem of fungus. The beige color will look harmonious with several spotlights.
Corridor and hallway
Light shades in the hallway will give more light. Since city apartments rarely have apartments with hallways with a lot of natural light, choosing a beige shade will be the best option.
Where does beige stretch fabric look best?
A design of this type can be safely used in all rooms. Regardless of the features of the room, design imagination and style, it will look noble. Most often, apartment and house owners install glossy and satin beige ceilings. The glossy finish has a slight specularity, due to which it will reflect the predominant shade of the interior. The beige design does not seem as strict as the white glossy ceiling, but retains the impression of spaciousness and lightness.
Cream, sand or light coffee color coating can be used for a room in a restrained English style. The beige color scheme looks very advantageous on multi-level plasterboard structures. They are often framed with baguettes and stucco. If the living room has a glossy ceiling of any beige shade, then it becomes an example of sophisticated and refined taste.
Such a ceiling would also be a good purchase for a bedroom. This palette has a beneficial effect on the human psyche. That is why a beige ceiling in the bedroom is the optimal solution for people who lead an active life and are exposed to stress. A bedroom with such a design will seem cozy but spacious.
Beige stretch ceiling in the bedroom
Designers advise installing beige stretch fabric in a hallway with artificial lighting. If the corridor or hallway is small in size, then its design must be done very carefully. Having made a mistake in the design, the apartment owner risks turning the hallway into a dark closet. If you find it difficult to create an interesting design for the corridor yourself, take advantage of a win-win option - coverings in beige tones. Stretch light and glossy material will visually increase the free space.
At the same time, it is important not to miss one point: designers do not recommend decorating the walls to match the beige ceiling. Otherwise, the room will seem expressionless and faded. If you absolutely want to do everything in one color, then be sure to dilute the interior with bright details: multi-colored paintings, vases, curtains, photo frames, etc.
The neutrality of beige is a great advantage for interiors that are full of decorations and other decorative items. A beige ceiling is also suitable for a room made in cool shades. By using a warm color, you will get a more cozy environment. If you prefer a calm palette and comfort, then the room can be completely decorated in beige, using its different nuances. In this case, the emphasis can be placed on unusual lighting. It’s interesting that against a beige background, a person’s face appears younger. Light-colored coatings are ideal for modern, retro, country, minimalism, art deco, colonial, etc. styles. In addition, a beige tone is the best background for applying a pattern to the ceiling.
Beige coatings are suitable for all rooms, regardless of their purpose. Cream, light peach or light coffee color is an ideal background for photo printing on the ceiling. This tone of the tension structure allows you to change the design of the room as you please. It is enough to change small interior details to make the room look different. A beige stretch ceiling for a child’s room is very good. In this room it is better to avoid bright and contrasting combinations.
Light, warm colors create a positive environment and are therefore ideal for a child's room. Neutral shades will make the room universal, and as the child grows up, the interior will not lose its relevance. When decorating the ceiling in the bathroom, you can also use a beige palette. It will cause pleasant relaxation and tranquility. Warm tones from the brown range are similar to natural earth tones, they evoke associations with sunlight. They have a beneficial effect on humans. The coating in this design is ideal for the bathroom. It can be combined with tiled (glossy or matte) brown tiles, artificial stone and other details.
Stretch ceiling in the bathroom
Particular attention should be paid to the choice of beige covering for the kitchen. It is advisable to avoid a yellowish tint. Otherwise, from a distance it will appear that the ceiling is greased and covered with soot. The color of baked milk, caramel or light cocoa looks beautiful in the kitchen. Such tones will make this room more comfortable and will encourage appetite.
In any case, a beige ceiling never seems boring. By combining different nuances and textures, you can get a decent and stylish interior.

Provence
Light shades are ideal for decorating a room in Provence style. Bleached or natural light wood is often used as a material for the ceiling. Hand painting will also be an unusual solution; the image can reflect the style of the room and make the interior unique.
Eco-friendly and safe production of patterned ceilings
The photographic image is applied to the canvas using a wide-format printer. To transfer high-resolution photos to the surface, environmentally friendly inks (eco-solvent and ultraviolet) are used in production. The design made with this ink is resistant to temperature changes, increased or decreased humidity, and exposure to light.
The image on the ceiling will remain bright for several decades. Another significant advantage of a stretch ceiling with photo printing is that it does not absorb odors at all, including the absence of the ink smell characteristic of printing.
The materials do not cause an allergic reaction, so they can be used anywhere. High-quality printing allows you to obtain a design that is resistant to mechanical damage and will not fade, wear off or wash off.
