Wooden beams in Moscow from Starinoff Furniture

The company "Starinoff-mebel" produces semi-antique furniture and can offer a huge range of decorative ceiling beams that have various characteristics: bearing and hemmed beams. In addition, we will gladly take part in the development of individual decorative wooden false beams that are suitable for any interior - from traditional classic to high-tech.

Long gone are the days when beams on the ceiling were exclusively in rural houses. In addition, it should be noted that today they perform not only the role of support for the roof, but also a decorative function. It is because of the latter that many people prefer to install decorative beams not only in country houses, but also in city apartments. They will look original and unusual, but only if you beat them correctly. It is about how to beat the beams on the ceiling in an apartment and an old house that we will tell in this article.

To complement the interior, it is absolutely not necessary to redo the roof and undertake expensive repairs, it will be enough to buy decorative beams and install them on the ceiling. There are three types of beams in the specialist shop:

wooden;
metal;
made of polyurethane.

The classic option is wooden ceiling beams. They are made from ash, pine and oak. They can be solid or hollow inside, which will hide various communications.

Previously, the beams were masked, but now designers include them in the interior of various rooms, where they fit organically. It can be:

living room;
bedroom;
cabinet;
the corridor.

Another original decision will become the zoning of the room. This is especially true for a studio apartment or a country house with large rooms. It is enough to correctly position the beams on the ceiling. If we consider the styles in which wooden decor elements occupy a leading position, then here we can highlight:

scandinavian;
rustic;
country;
mediterranean.

You can also fix lamps or chandeliers with chains on the beams.

Design features

When planning an interior, it is necessary to pay attention to all the details, even the most insignificant ones. When it comes to beams, there are several options: to beat the entire surface or to decorate it partially by making strict structures. Beams can be laid in a variety of ways, while relying on your taste and discretion, so you should not be limited by the rules.

There are some relevant ways finishing wood beams on the ceiling:

Brushing. This technology will allow you to highlight the texture of the wood. Craftsmen imitate even traces of the bark beetle. As a result, the beams are transformed beyond recognition, and outwardly it will seem that the residents are in an old house, which is more than 200 years old.
Fire treatment. This is a technology for artificial aging of wood. This method requires a blowtorch and special brushes.
Vintage style. To achieve that the ceiling with load-bearing beams looked like an old one, you can use special paints and varnishes.
Ethnic style. It is necessary to include in the interior forged items and twine.
Traditional style. Distinctive feature - simplicity, this is what allows you to create an atmosphere of comfort and warmth.

Some designs involve transitions from ceilings to walls. At the same time, the beams can give a refined European style to the room.

In the old house

Quite often, in country houses that are used during the season (summer), the decoration quickly deteriorates and loses its attractive appearance. This happens especially often in wooden house, as the wood is exposed to moisture and dampness. To return the beams to a presentable look, you can:

dismantle old beams and install false polyurethane beams (this material well imitates wood texture);
decorate the structure with ropes, creating an interior in a marine style;
hide flaws on the surface with paint or varnish;
in case of too obvious defects, putty and prime the surface, after which paint should be applied;
not just paint the beams, but also paint them by hand or using stencils.

There are also several recommendations regarding the style of the interior of the room. For example, the high-tech style goes well with metallic shades, the conducted wires that do not hide, and simple light bulbs will add originality. If we talk about country or Provence style, then a whitewashed ceiling against a background of bright beams will be most appropriate.

When painting beams, it is not necessary to give preference to natural (brown) and pastel shades. By choosing bright colors, you can get bright accent on the ceiling.

Concrete beam masking

Now let's look at the basic methods of how you can beat the beams on the ceiling in the house in different situations.

The option with the installation of LED strips is suitable for a modern style or for a teenager's room.

What if the concrete beam cannot be masked in any way? In this case, you should do suspended structure from drywall or stretch ceiling... A box in the shape of the letter "P" can be made of drywall. Such a box should be fixed directly to the ceiling and adjacent wall. It is not recommended to drill into a beam, as it may lose its technical characteristics.

Moreover, if a concrete beam is vertical, then this disadvantage can be turned into an advantage. For example, make a built-in wardrobe. This will completely hide the existing beam and at the same time create a lot of storage space.

Full or partial disguise

Quite often, the owners decide to completely hide the beams from view, but you can only close the space between the beams by making a ceiling. In this case, the following types of ceilings and materials are used:

tension;
plasterboard;
caisson;
lining.

The most expensive and sophisticated is the coffered ceiling. In addition to beams, this design provides for the creation of other elements, for example, cells, recesses and cornices. The cassettes can be of any shape:

polygon;
rhombus;
square.

Using partial camouflage, you can hide flaws and defects on the ceiling and at the same time leave beams in the interior of the room.

If your home has ceiling beams, getting rid of them would be the worst solution. After all, it is possible to add a zest to the interior of the room with minimal financial and time costs, just by correctly playing the existing design features.

All photos from the article

The use of natural wooden beams to decorate the ceiling is not always possible, so today you can often find polyurethane analogues. With their help, it is possible to create the interior that was originally developed by designers.

The use of an inexpensive alternative material allows you to expand the circle of consumers, since natural beams are not affordable for cost and installation. Today in the article we will study this issue from different angles.

The advent of polyurethane led to a high demand for products made from it, which could represent not only ceiling beams, but also polyurethane boards for wood, stucco molding, and columns. The material can be different - too tough and very elastic, we meet with him almost every day and everywhere.

Advantage of PPU ceiling beams

They are based on polyurethane foam, which has gained recognition in design and construction. Let's consider in more detail the characteristics of the material:

pros

Attracts polyurethane foam because of its:

minimal hygroscopicity, moisture absorption in the usual sense does not occur;
a small mass, in fact, an imitation of ceiling beams has a weight that is approximately 10 times lower than a natural material (depending on what to compare with, for example, with oak or pine);
resistance to bacteria, insects and fungi (mold);
ease of installation;
uncomplicated processing;
the possibility of additional finishing, which can often be staining;
portability of fastening materials - nails and screws;
required bending, tearing or tensile strength during work;
resistance to deformation under normal temperature conditions operation;
manufacturability in application and manufacture.

The material fully complies with sanitary and fire safety standards.

Minuses

The material has much fewer drawbacks, among them we note:

relatively high price, although the cost by manufacturers is steadily decreasing thanks to new technologies;
the content of toxins in the smoke during a fire, in this case it is possible to compensate for this by selecting the appropriate flammability group and rational design;
the UV response, which affects all polymers, is neutralized by a protective decorative paint coat.

Advice: when choosing a material, pay attention to its flammability group, it is advisable to give preference to G2.

Application of PPU false beams

Modern production technologies do not allow the ordinary consumer to distinguish imitation from polyurethane foam from wood. You can purchase both already decorated and semi-finished products that have good adhesion to acrylic paints and varnishes.

This is enough for you to make your dream come true.

You can use PPU false beams not only inside, but also outside, where they can create the necessary decor for buildings or summer grounds. This is due to the fact that they are weatherproof, easy to install, have a long service life and are cheaper than the original ones. In addition, the material can thaw and freeze repeatedly.
Often they serve as a "magic wand" when it is required to hide the flaws that have arisen during construction works... Doing it yourself is not difficult.

Tip: do not forget that polyurethane foam does not have the same resistance to mechanical stress as the wood imitated by it.

With the help of false parts, you can hide any communications:

plumbing;
built-in backlight;
acustic systems.

Types of PPU timber

Material can take any shape, which is limited only by the consumer's imagination.
Polyurethane ceiling beam can have different densities, depending on the task.
The main way of decorating PPU is painting... Today the construction market offers products that are textured under different breeds wood, including oak, cherry or walnut. They can differ in color saturation and its shades.
Most often with a section of 60 by 90 (120) mm, 120 by 120, 130 by 200 mm, 170 by 190 mm, the length of which is 2-4 m.
The hardness of the material can be weak, and also almost correspond to iron, respectively 40 and 98 units. on the Shore scale.

Installation

The technology is due to the low weight of polyurethane foam parts, so the main technique in this case is gluing them. The difficulty is only one moment in the work - the pairing of elements with each other.

Tip: use a miter box and templates to avoid or replace defective parts later.

The process instruction is as follows:

Before the main work, the molding should be kept in the room where the beams will be installed for at least 24 hours.
The minimum ambient temperature depends on the characteristics of the adhesive used, most often it is possible to work at T \u003d\u003e + 5˚С.
Carefully align the geometry of the surfaces, in this case the cleanliness of the finish is not important.
Clean surfaces from dust, plaster and grease stains. Putty any irregularities and process the material with a mixture ammonia (10%) with water in a ratio of 1 to 1.
Use mechanical fasteners and adhesives specified by the PU foam manufacturer. The first one (or props) is necessary for firmly fixing the product until it gains strength with glue, which takes a day or a half.

Output

The use of PPU false beams allows you to quickly and easily decorate the ceiling in the room. All work can be carried out independently using the appropriate tools and materials that are recommended by the manufacturer. The video in this article will complement the information on the above topic.

The beams on the ceiling are a stylish yet cozy decor element. They will bring to the interior an atmosphere of country warmth that is so lacking. Nevertheless, the chosen material will support the stylistic idea and can correspond to both modern and classical trends.
