Starting Point
Newly built «VERANDA» multi-purpose room as an extension to the Finlandia hall in Helsinki. A variety of combinations allows the room to be customised to its visitors’ needs.
The large window bank lends the room a lightweight air.

Solution
The aim was to find a textile solution with dim-out properties. The blackout curtain needed to have a beautiful drop as well as an elegant finish from the outside and inside as the large ground floor window bank is clearly visible from the building’s fore court.
The decisive factor was Dimmer’s beautiful double-sided quality and the wide spectrum of colours.
