Peculiarities
From a technical point of view, a stretch ceiling is a canvas impregnated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It is a durable material that has a number of advantages. It is suitable for any premises: shopping centers, offices, private houses and city apartments. Modern designers most often offer 2 options: glossy or matte finishes. The former are suitable for miniature and spacious rooms. The glossy texture can visually expand the space, and the shine will add light and novelty to the living room.

Advantages and disadvantages
Glossy stretch ceilings attract attention with their amazing "mirror" shine. In addition, gloss has a number of significant advantages.
- Presentable appearance. The hall with a glossy stretch ceiling looks simply luxurious. However, designers are not advised to overdo it with such gloss. If the room is made in dark colors, then the mirror finish should be in a delicate pastel shade.
- Environmental friendliness. PVC is considered a safe material, as it does not emit toxic substances, does not have a pungent odor, and does not lose its amazing shine over time.
- Versatility. Suitable for all areas, including the washroom. Does not deteriorate under the influence of moisture and high temperatures. Glossy ceilings are also relevant for saunas and swimming pools.
- Strength. If the neighbors from above flooded the apartment with stretch glossy coatings, then the damage will be minimal. The fact is that this ceiling is able to withstand about 100 liters of water per square meter. In addition, after drying, the coating will not lose its presentable appearance.

Despite all the advantages, a glossy ceiling is not without its drawbacks. Modern designers warn apartment owners that This coating gets dirty quickly and stains are visible on it. Plain water will not be able to remove dirt.
For these purposes, it is necessary to purchase a special cleaning agent, the cost of which is quite high.

Glossy cold shine should not be chosen for the hall, which is located on the north side. This tone will add even more "cold" to the darkened room. In addition, photo printing is poorly applied to the mirror coating. Thus, decorating a glossy finish with an original 3D pattern will be quite costly.
In spacious living rooms, it is problematic to create a seamless mirror finish, so a glossy texture is best chosen for a miniature hall. Note that you should not make such a ceiling in the bedroom or office, as excessive glare can quickly tire the eyes.

Constructions
Stretch ceilings can be as follows.
- Sibling. The simplest option, which requires the minimum cost of material and money. They are durable, easy to clean and have a wide range of colors.
- Multilevel... They are attached to their plasterboard structure, which creates several levels. Such a ceiling fits into any interior of the apartment. The second level is most often of a geometric shape (rectangle, circle or ellipse). Multilevel glossy coatings perfectly hide the flaws of the main ceiling. Most often, city apartment owners choose a black and white color combination for this solution.

Stretch glossy ceilings with a pattern are no less popular. You can decorate the “Mirror Sky” in an apartment with an original pattern or create a reproduction of a famous painting on it. Lighting plays an important role in an apartment with glossy stretch ceilings. Spotlights, massive chandeliers and LED bulbs are ideal.
