The design of the ceiling space of public spaces is an important stage in the work on an architectural project, but today there are a limited number of tools and technologies that could be used to solve this problem. Paper Design Company we offer completely new, exclusive methods of working with the ceiling spaces of public buildings in the Russian market.
Paper design successfully implements European technologies for decorating ceilings and creating new architectural solutions from non-woven fabrics manufactured at the Parisian factory Procedes Chenel International®, of which Paper Design has been the exclusive distributor since 2011.
Materials used
Paper design - non-flammable, lightweight, translucent, environmentally friendly. These include Drop paper®, Drop Jet®, Fluo Drop®, Drop Net® and other brands represented by Paper Design. For example, Drop Paper® and Drop Jet® - extremely popular for the design of exhibition stands, interiors of offices, restaurants, galleries, shopping centers and showrooms. The non-flammable properties of these materials are confirmed by the European M1 certificate and the Russian fire certificate. It is for fire resistance in Europe that ceilings made of such non-combustible materials are called "Security ceilings".
The surface of the nonwoven fabric looks a bit like paper, so decorative ceilings made with its use are often called "paper". But the material, unlike paper, is strong, elastic, has a beautiful texture and at the same time is quite light (density from 60 g / m22). On the other hand, unlike any fabric, the material of the Procedes Chenel International factory® with a roll width of 2 m, 40 cm can reach up to 250 meters in length, which makes it possible to create seamless structures that sometimes cannot be made from alternative fabric materials.
Another difference from fabric is that there is no need to process an edge. The material holds its shape well, has a unique effect to create additional volume due to the refraction of natural or artificial light in the room.
The company offers architects and designers a wide range of materials of different densities, compositions and colors. The palette contains 42 shades. But this is not the limit: the material accepts all types of printing, so if the desired color is not found, it can be applied over it - just like a logo, text or any other graphics.
Decorative ceilings Paper Design allow you to leave engineering systems open and easily accessible at any time, masking them well. The implementation of such ceilings is possible at any stage of an architectural project or room renovation, including the final one. Installation of decorative ceilings should be carried out as a last resort, after the completion of all finishing work, and the supporting structures are minimal in weight and mail is invisible to the eye. All this together allows you to install a "paper ceiling" in any ready-made room.
Types of "paper ceilings" Drop Stripe ceiling®
The first and one of the most common types of decorative suspended ceilings. Represents lamellas located across or along the working space with a certain step. Ceiling slats can be of the same height, straight, such as in the classrooms of Skoltech University, or have different heights or a curved edge that animates the surface. The most difficult option - "folding" lamella, similar to a pleated skirt - this technique was used in
business center Port Plaza.
Architects or interior designers can embody any idea and not limit themselves in the design of the ceiling, either in shape, or in size, or in color. Therefore, this system is usually used in art objects. For example, in the Media Lab within the framework of Moscow Design Week, the OblaKº project was presented under which the unsurpassed Philippe Starck lectured. The timing of the production of such ceilings depends on the complexity of the idea and can be implemented from 20 to 60 calendar days.
Honeycomb ceiling®
This is the second type of ceiling decoration that is produced in a factory in Paris. Also referred to as a honeycomb ceiling, Honeycomb boasts good acoustic insulation and excellent light distribution. Light sources can be invisible and located both above the ceiling system
Honeycomb ceiling®, and under it.
The honeycomb structure of the ceiling allows you to suspend and mount the light source anywhere you wish, leaving utilities, fire extinguishing and ventilation systems available for maintenance. The ceiling is produced in three heights of 4, 8 or 16 cm, but upon additional request it can be made in a height of up to 80 cm. This allows it to be used in work even with a small height potential of the room. The number of "honeycombs" per running meter of the ceiling depends on the selected height and varies from 4 to 16 "honeycombs" per 1 running meter of length. The ceiling is easy and quick to install and can be completed by the contractor himself. Ceiling system Honeycomb ceiling® often used to "dress up" any room or for events and is a great way to decorate the ceiling in
office premises, sales areas and exhibition stands. It is necessary to take into account the time for delivery to Russia, therefore, the implementation time for this type of ceiling space design is from 45 to 60 calendar days.
Drop gondola®
Drop Gondola ceiling system® Is a system of ceiling slats curved in a semicircle made of material
Drop paper®, Drop Kraft® or Drop Jet®… The lamellas can be made in the desired size and geometric shape. The resulting gondola arches impress with their lightness and incredible volume, and due to the ease of installation, the Drop Gondola system® is the ideal solution for fast decoration of exhibitions, offices, galleries and museums, as well as shopping centers. A great idea for decorating a ceiling is to fix the lamellas at different levels, which allows you to achieve a volumetric solution similar to a vaulted ceiling. In this case, the surface of the material can be used as an information carrier and a complete masking of engineering communications or the existing ceiling. The term of production is from 15 to 30 calendar days.
ParaLume®
Another innovative solution for decorating ceilings is the ParaLume system®… Using light masking technology, you can achieve stunning lighting effects and volumetric relief. The goal is to create a light structure that is integrated into the overall design concept of the object. This type of design is unique and requires detailed engineering design in conjunction with lighting specialists.
Fifth type of decorative ceiling Smoke out® and 3D Smoke Out® - ceiling for perfect camouflage. Manufactured from refractory woven stretch fabric. Production time is 40-60 calendar days. But it deserves a separate, more detailed description in our next materials.
Paper Design invites architectural, design bureaus, independent architects and designers to cooperate. Experts are open to dialogue, call and write, Paper Design is ready to prepare an estimate for any type of ceiling in your work projects as soon as possible.
