Bas-relief as an element of the interior

Bas-reliefs will help to reduce the dullness and uniformity of monophonic surfaces of walls and ceilings, especially when the addition of decorative elements or additional paints is undesirable.

Even the simplest bas-relief drawing will revive the surrounding space if it is possible to choose the right lighting.

A universal solution for all styles when decorating walls and ceilings are branches and a tree trunk or an abstract pattern that can fill a wall without overloading the space.

The image of a tree is one of the most neutral and universal solutions.

The bas-relief can be created in several ways:

  • fashioning directly on the surface of the wall;
  • by manufacturing individual elements, followed by wall mounting;
  • in the form of a volumetric picture made on a solid basis (for example, on a gypsum-fiber sheet).
