Starting Point
In the course of a renovation project, a forty-year-old company building was transformed into an experimental field under the innovative concept «Work & Life Precinct». This has not only opened up the company to the neighbourhood. It has also created new values for society. The entire project embodies a fascinating prototype for future offices in the city. It not only creates a semi-public space, but also emphasises the importance of empathic resonance, which is essential in the new era of flexible work.
Solution
The extraordinary concept of this new-generation office required a careful choice of curtains. On the one hand, they should have sound-absorbing properties, on the other hand, they should correspond to the aesthetic concept. The transparent acoustic fabric SIGMACOUSTIC and the heavy curtain fabric CALVARO combine functional and aesthetic demands into a harmonious combination that is both inviting and inspiring and sets a new standard for modern working environments.
