The suspended ceiling is the most versatile finishing material - it serves to decorate the ceiling, creates a ceiling space intended for laying utilities and improves the indoor microclimate: its acoustic environment and illumination.
In the palette of designers there are many types of suspended ceilings, which differ in configuration (rack, cassette) and the material from which they are made (metal, mineral fiber).
A special place among them is occupied by raster, lattice or open cell ceilings. They have many names, but the essence is the same - the ceiling consists of metal profiles intersecting at right angles, which create a through grating.
Thanks to such an openwork design, the suspended ceiling does not reduce the height of the room, but, on the contrary, creates the impression of lightness and airiness. The play of light and shadow in its lattice structure creates an effective relief surface that gives the interior design a special expressiveness.
Raster ceilings have been known for many years, but they have a significant drawback - they are assembled on a construction site, in "field conditions", which is laborious and does not guarantee high quality installation. And if you need to replace a fragment or gain access to the ceiling cavity (for example, to the communications passing there), then you will have to dismantle a significant area of the suspended structure.
Ceilings KR-15 ("Bard Firm") exclude such disadvantages. They are delivered to the construction site ready-made - a single element of the ceiling is a 600x600mm cassette that fits on a typical fifteen-millimeter profile of the suspension system.
Moreover, "Bard" is the only company that uses an aluminum profile in it, which ensures lightness, strength and fire safety of structures. The ceiling assembled from KR-15 cassettes looks like a monolithic, continuous lattice, stretching from wall to wall of the room.
Another unique feature of KR-15 raster ceilings is that they have a laminated surface with a variety of colors. The coloristic and textured surface design can be divided into four groups: metallic, mirror, colored and Scandy (Bard's proprietary design line).
Scandy finishes are available in 15 tones and textures. It imitates different types of wood (Karelian birch, pine, mahogany, dark oak, black oak, old oak), fabric (matting and flax) and minerals (mica, wet asphalt, pearls, gray marble). Moreover, the harness corresponds to the cells in color.
But, perhaps, the most valuable quality is that cassettes can be made from profiles with surfaces of different colors and textures. For example, some slats will be white, and perpendicular to them - "pine". This flexibility and variability in ceiling layout gives architects and designers unlimited creative freedom.
Cells of cassettes can be either square in size from 50x50mm to 200x200mm, and rectangular: 50x100, 75x150, 100x200 mm and others. So the graphic solution of the ceiling can be flexibly "adjusted" to the design of the entire interior, fully complying with the concept of the project.
In addition to the high aesthetic value, laminated ceilings also have improved performance characteristics. The protective and decorative coating gives the laminated ceilings high moisture resistance, which allows them to be used in rooms with high humidity (for example, in swimming pools). Laminated panels do not change their size over time, do not warp, rust and do not fade under the sun's rays.
A well-thought-out grid system and a wide range of mesh sizes provide simple and convenient integration into the ceiling of any type of luminaires, air duct grilles, sprinklers … Due to the low weight of the cassettes and the grid system, there are no special requirements for the bearing properties of the floors of the buildings in which the ceiling is installed.
Raster ceilings KR-15 can be installed both in new buildings and during renovation, conversion and reconstruction of buildings - they will help to radically change the familiar interior, give it a modern sound and energy of techno and hi-tech style.
Lattice ceilings are ideal for use in all areas of construction: healthcare, transportation, entertainment, shopping and sports complexes, public areas of residential, administrative and office buildings. But the need for them is especially noticeable where it is necessary to create a unique image that will emphasize and reveal the uniqueness of a given object - in restaurants, boutiques, shopping halls.
Firma Bard is a well-known Russian designer and manufacturer of aluminum slatted ceilings and ventilated facades.
Representatives of the company visit clients and hold product presentations with demonstrations of samples and a collection of colors and textures.
In addition, on the page https://www.bard.su/potolok/celio/ of the company's website in the interactive section "Designer of the cellular ceiling KR-15 from Firm Bard" you can independently get acquainted with the entire range of colors and sizes of the KR-15 ceiling and compose with your own hands a combination of sizes and finishes.
