The 4 Different Types of Commercial Ceilings

Ceilings Matter. Ceilings play a pivotal role in defining spaces. While wood ceilings hold a special allure, understanding the array of options available can empower you to articulate your design vision effectively.

Choosing the perfect ceiling solution hinges on your space’s unique characteristics and your design aspirations. Are you aiming for striking visual impact or prioritizing performance-driven features?

At Altispace, we specialize in crafting bespoke wood ceilings and acoustic ceilings. However, to assist you in navigating the design landscape, here’s a breakdown of the five most prevalent ceiling types, suited for commercial settings.

Different Types of Ceilings For Your Commercial Space

1. Exposed Ceilings:

Exposed ceilings embrace an industrial charm by leaving ductwork, wires, and plumbing systems exposed. Beyond the rugged aesthetic, they facilitate easy maintenance and repair access, translating to cost savings without the hassle of upkeep.

2. Suspended Ceilings:

A suspended ceiling also known as dropped ceiling, suspended from a metal grid beneath the existing structure. Popular in commercial spaces, they offer designers a canvas to conceal mechanical, electrical, and plumbing fixtures while ensuring acoustic comfort with noise-regulating tiles.

3. Suspended Wood Ceilings:

Suspended wood ceilings offer an elegant fusion of aesthetics and practicality. At Altispace, we offer commercial wood ceilings, whether you’re creating a largescale ceiling, or a statement feature wall, our Laminate Beams and Laminate Shapes are custom-made to your specific requirements, providing unparalleled creative scope.
