Backlit Stretch Ceilings: Designing with a Ceiling That Glows
A backlit ceiling replaces scattered fittings with one evenly lit surface. Done well, it reads less like a light and more like a skylight: soft, shadow-free and calm. Done badly, you see hotspots, shadows from the frame and LED dots through the membrane. The difference comes down to the membrane, the light source behind it and the coordination around it.

Acoustic Stretch Ceilings: Benefits, Test Data and How to Specify Them
Hard, minimal interiors look calm in a render and sound anything but calm once a room fills with people.

An acoustic stretch ceiling treats that whole plane without tiles, grid or visible fixings. Here is what it does, what the test data shows, and what to check at specification stage. What an acoustic stretch ceiling actually
