Color the sky in a city apartment

Asya Ilyina architectural techniques often gain a second life in the design. Brutal rafters from the carrier turned into a spectacular part of the interior, and under ventstoyaki now increasingly "camouflage" racks and use them to Zone the space. It happened to light lanterns - translucent structures in the roof that allow additional cover accommodation. Of course, in the modern city apartment ceiling is not made transparent, but to simulate light the lantern, you can use for the interior. Spectacular lighting, received among the designers called the "ceiling lamp" will make your home not only lighter, but also beautiful. Ceiling lights - this frame ceiling made of metal, wrought iron, wood or plastic and filled with a single color or multi-colored glass. It may also include a variety of decorative elements, such as bronze lattice, ornamental friezes, even imitation candlesticks placed on the perimeter of the structure. Ceiling lights can not be bought at the store. It you can design only the designer, taking into account all the features of the room, for which he designed: the shape and area, ceiling height, color, functionality. That is why the ceiling lights - is always an exclusive element of the interior, custom made. And one must be prepared for the fact that, as any stationary structure, ceiling lamp suggests some monumentality, for its Ferris required space. In a small city apartment, he most likely will look awkward and clumsy. Normally such designs adorn the halls of country houses and indoor swimming pools. However, a small area of ??1.2 square meters. m, the light panels completely and properly integrated into the living room, bedroom or even a spacious hall. Weight ceiling lamp by definition can not be small. Frame (metal or wood), stained glass, filling the openings needed electricity and proper lamps - all together it can not draw on a dozen pounds. That is why, having decided to install a lamp, you should consult not only with the designer, but with the designer. Will the overlap of such a burden? To this question I would like to get a response to mounting ceiling lamp. And, incidentally, is why specialists developed two ways to install light panels. The first involves fixing the supporting frame directly to the floors, the second - increasing the ceiling on the perimeter of the canopy. The last way for city apartments is the best: light has no load on the floor, and themselves fixtures and wiring are hidden in the space between the base and false ceilings. Another option - to build dome ceiling structure in the stretch. In this case, the location of the lantern to arrange extra frame and pull on her cloth ceiling. But remember that the PVC film used in such constructions, is afraid of high temperatures, so in such a ceiling lamp will be used is not the brightest and most powerful lamps. Form of ceiling lights can be very diverse: square, rectangular, round, oval, diamond-shaped, with smooth curves. Perhaps the most classic (and popular) is now considered decision when fluorescent lamps are closed opaque or milky-white glass, which creates the effect of scattered light. However, at least in the ceiling lamps used stained glass windows. Specialists are several types of stained glass for lamps extra large size. For example, stained glass can be assembled on lead profiles or executed in the so-called technique of "Tiffany". The essence of the latter method is that the stained glass, carved or molded to the desired shape, wrapped around the perimeter of a special copper tape ("Foyle"), then obvaltsovyvaetsya and pressure welded with the other. This technology allows you to create complex heterogeneous composition, which include the very fine detail that is not always possible in a classic stained glass lead. However, there is a danger that over time (at best 5-10 years, but perhaps earlier), the entire design provisnet. Can solve this problem by dividing the panel into sections by a powerful lead-frame or by using a substrate made of thick plexiglass. By the way, if the lamp you want to do more, but the alleged structural weight scares you, you can compromise and get a simulation on Plexiglas or acrylic glass. The desired effect is achieved by special translucent film that replicate glass of different colors and textures, and weighs (and costs that sometimes no less important) such a lamp is much less. As a rule, in good stained-glass lamp is used several types of lamps (incandescent, fluorescent, halogen). Their power is chosen in such a way that the light beam evenly passed through a glass frame and covered the entire room. Organization of stained glass lighting should be paid close attention, because too powerful light will kill him iridescence and bright enough not give the effect of transparency of glass. By the way, designers are advised to use a ceiling lamp-colored fluorescent lamps. The desired color is selected, depending on the range of stained glass on a simple principle: a warm tone to a warm, cold - the cold.
