A ceiling covers the upper interior surface of a room and conceals the structure above. Ceilings can be decorated and come in different materials, styles, and designs. Some common ceiling types include coffered, barrel vault, tray, suspended, glass, metal, beam, wooden, gypsum, POP, and acoustic ceilings. Ceilings are chosen based on factors like cost, ease of installation, sound control, lighting effects, and aesthetics.
