Looking for a white

Colored stretch ceilings make it possible to solvealmost any decorative task. However, practice shows that their key drawback is unpredictable "behavior". Two problems arise: either the color of the coating turns out to be much darker than planned, and creates a feeling of heaviness, or its shade does not coincide with the main palette of the interior. The main property of a colored glossy ceiling is its reflectivity. It also visually enlarges the space. The shade of the ceiling is always inhomogeneous: in the area of ​​the lamp it is lighter, and in the parts farther from it, it is darker. And the richer the glossy shade, the stronger these changes. So, dark chocolate in places of intense lighting can vary from umber and brown to light brown and khaki.

Another's mirror
