Suspended ceilings in car showrooms: design solutions that enhance uniqueness
Expired
Modern car showrooms have evolved far beyond mere exhibition halls with vehicles, transforming into stylish and well-thought-out spaces designed to impress potential buyers at first glance. In this setting, interior design plays as significant a role as the cars displayed. The atmosphere and appearance of the showroom set the tone for the customer's interaction with the brand.

Notably, the interior of the showroom tends to be minimalistic, which makes the suspended ceiling a central element that decorates the interior and gives it a distinct personality.

Combinations of ceiling solutions – the key to stylish interiors

In this project, suspended ceilings harmoniously combine various types and color solutions, creating unique designer compositions. This approach not only introduces visual dynamics but also effectively zones the space. Additionally, unconventional combinations of materials and shapes lend originality and style to the interior. Let's delve deeper into the design solutions that were employed.
Linear strip ceiling: customer area

In the customer areas of the car showroom, a designer suspended ceiling made of a combination of cube-shaped rails measuring 105x35 mm and plate-shaped rails at a height of 105 mm, complemented by KRAFT G-Led lighting fixtures, is installed. Thanks to the use of the universal KRAFT traverse, which can mount both types of rails, additional mounting elements are not required, simplifying installation.

The expressiveness of the ceiling is enhanced by alternating rails in contrasting colors — black and white. On the ground floor of the showroom, the black cube-shaped rail combines with the white plate-shaped rail, while on the second floor, the colors are inverted. Such a design choice creates a dramatic play of light and shadows, forming interesting geometric patterns and smooth transitions. The combination of different shapes, colors, and lighting adds modernity and visual depth to the interior.

Suspended ceiling from open cell ceiling and mesh: exhibition hall area

In the exhibition hall area of the car showroom, designers implemented even more original ideas for suspended ceilings. Let's review them:

1. Combining two types of ceilings
Both blinds open cell ceiling GLK and Mesh T-24 Lay-On Panels are utilized. Both ceiling types are highly transparent, allowing the space to "breathe." This visually expands the room, and in combination with large glass areas, creates an effect of an open and airy space.

2. Contrasting color palette
For the cassette open cell ceiling GLK, the same contrasting colors as in the customer area — black and white — are chosen. This forms a geometric pattern on the ceiling that attracts the eye and adds dynamics to the interior.
3. Perpendicular placement of cassettes
The cassettes of the open cell ceiling GLK are positioned at different angles, perpendicular to each other. This arrangement creates an additional visual accent, making the ceiling appear "alive" and altering the perception depending on the viewing angle.

4. Ease of installation and maintenance
Both the cassette open cell ceiling GLK and KRAFT Mesh Panels are mounted on a unified framework of KRAFT Fortis T-profiles, significantly simplifying installation and maintenance.

This combination of functionality and aesthetics makes the ceiling a true interior decoration. The play of light, geometry and textures gives the space a unique character that will definitely not go unnoticed.

Lighting and accents with KRAFT Led lighting

Lighting plays a key role in shaping the atmosphere and visual perception of the space. In the exhibition hall area, two types of lighting fixtures are used, harmoniously complementing the design solutions of the ceiling.

1. Linear lighting fixtures KRAFT G-Led
These 1200 mm long fixtures highlight the pattern of the cassette open cell ceiling GLK, enhancing its geometric effect and adding expressiveness to the ceiling structure.

2. Accent lighting fixtures KRAFT InterioLed
These fixtures focus attention on key elements in the hall, such as cars on podiums, highlighting them in the space and directing visitors' attention.

Light interacting with the different textures and colors of the ceiling constructions creates multilayered visual compositions. The use of KRAFT Led lighting fixtures allows for solving not only functional lighting tasks but also artistic ones, emphasizing unique interior elements of the car showroom and creating a memorable atmosphere.

Conclusion

Suspended ceilings in a car showroom are more than just a decorative element. They shape the character and style of the space, reinforcing the brand and enhancing customer impressions. Through the use of diverse types and combinations of ceiling constructions, car showrooms offer visitors not just a technical space but an aesthetic journey where each interior element underscores the uniqueness and boldness of the design. Such innovative integration of design and technology fosters a positive brand perception and allows standing out among competitors, generating a sense of exclusivity and the pursuit of perfection.
