It’s like building a house without a roof. It’s very rare that you see a ceiling without any design. A false ceiling is found in almost every room of a home.

One of the advantages of a POP design for the living room, is that it eliminates unsightly wires, cables and light fixtures. 

False ceilings come in a variety of styles, from traditional to modern. They can be tailored to suit your needs. Wood and gypsum are the two most common materials used to make false ceilings. 

PVC, glass, fiber, synthetic leather and metal are also used to make false ceilings, although they are less common.

Ceilings made of POP are usually mounted 8-9″ away from the original ceiling. Plaster of paris (POP), a type of building material, is made from gypsum heated to a high temperature. 

The name of the material comes from a French region that produced it first. POP ceilings are characterized by their versatility and elegance. The designs are able to be molded into almost any size and shape, so they can fit even awkward corners. The POP designs can be used to create the mood you want in your living room.

The blog opens up a whole world of creativity, from POP designs for walls to POPs that are simple but impactful in your living room. The best part is? You can achieve amazing results with an inexpensive, simple, and budget-friendly POP design.

When choosing the right POP wall design, you should consider several factors to ensure that the design is beautiful and compliments the room’s aesthetics and functionality.

Smaller rooms may benefit from subtler, simpler patterns.

The POP should be in harmony with the overall design of your house, whether it’s modern, traditional, eclectic etc. Coherence is important to ensure that the POP design complements your existing décor rather than clashing.

The right lighting can create beautiful shadows that add an additional layer of beauty to a room.

Determine your budget. The cost of POP can be very different, so you should consider your budget. Creative designs are still effective even with a small budget.

Designs that fall from high ceilings can be dramatic. Designs that are horizontal will create an illusion of space for lower ceilings.

Different Types of POP Designs

These wall patterns are a great way to bring character and style to any living space. The designs are suitable for ceilings, walls and other features such as cornices or mouldings. The following are some examples of different POP designs which could enhance the ambience of your living room:

POP LED Wall Panels

The integration of LED panels into POP walls can create an entrance to your home which is both functional and visually appealing. Energy-efficient LEDs can be used to brighten ceiling grooves such as coffered or plus-minus. Dimmable lights can be used to create an inviting and warm atmosphere. The idea is to insert flat LED panels in the wall, and then cover them with POP for a seamless look.
