False Ceiling

With good quality metal frames, gypsum ceilings by Saint Gobain are quite durable. Since gypsum boards are made with precision in factories, the consistency in design is maintained which makes it the ideal material for best false ceiling designs.

What is a false ceiling?

As the name suggests, a false ceiling is a ceiling placed under the original ceiling of a room, kitchen or an entire home to add an edge. It is normally suspended by wooden or metal frames either completely covering the original ceiling or is a part of the original ceiling based on the design and space availability. Usually, the mounting distance of the false ceiling from the original ceiling is around 8 inches. They are versatile and can fit into homes of any size and shape.

False ceilings are used as a protective covering for original ceilings which helps in reducing wear and tear. False ceilings provide both aesthetic and functional benefits. They are extensively used in office buildings, IT firms, malls, and other commercial buildings, but with modern home designs, false ceilings in no time have become a mandatory interior design element in an Indian home. Among all the rooms, Kitchen is one place where the false ceiling is very effective.

False Ceiling Designs

There is a notion that false ceilings have to be fancy and intricately designed with lots of hidden lighting to make them stand out. But, in reality, false ceilings are made to protect the original ceiling from wear and tear, moisture and enhance the beauty of the home. A simple false ceiling design for a kitchen using materials like wood or gypsum with LED backlighting can also do the trick for covering the original ceiling and also enhance the aesthetic appeal of the kitchen. Sometimes simple false ceiling designs for the kitchen are more effective and save space than complex designs made only for improving aesthetics. The false ceilings will also help in thermal insulation during cold conditions.
