Plafond is one of the functional elements of the lighting device. It serves to protect the eyes from glare and is an important component of the stylistic design of the room. Lampshades come in different designs, colors and materials for their manufacture.
Features
Modern shades are not afraid of high temperatures, so they can be used with any lamps: fluorescent, halogen, LED and energy-saving. They are produced to protect light bulbs from dust and mechanical damage, and protect people from blinding light.
They are also an important interior detail. Sometimes all you need to update the look of a room is to hang a lampshade in a different shape, color, or style. Some manufacturers of electrical appliances immediately supply a set of several shades with the product. This greatly simplifies the operation of the instruments.
Varieties of shades
By design, they are closed (they have the shape of a ball and gently scatter light throughout the room), half-open, open (focus on a specific area).
The shape can beround, cylindrical or conical. The color of the lampshade greatly affects the intensity of light and the aesthetic direction of the design of the room.
Lampshades are made from the following materials:
- Glass. The advantage is transparency, good reflective ability, a wide choice of shades. The disadvantage is fragility. Such products are not used in children's rooms.
- Metal. The material does not warp or break. Easy care and environmentally friendly.
- Plastic. Plafonds made of this material are sold at affordable prices. Plastic lampshades are lightweight, have many shades. They are not combined in a classic interior with expensive furniture and artsy finishes.
The ceiling is an electrical appliance that does not require painstaking care. It is enough to periodically wipe it from dust with a soft cloth and a delicate detergent. Do not use abrasives so as not to scratch the material from which it is made.
