white textile softblock | modular acoustic room divider

Flexible building blocks, each textile softblock can be stretched to 15 feet (4.5 meters) long, connected magnetically, and stacked to create a tall, richly textured space partition or backdrop. Available in modular sizes softblocks belong to the larger collection of molo paper furniture and can be used to shape entire environments or to form long, winding partitions and product displays.

movement

The honeycomb geometry and soft material allow softblock to flex and curve, creating straight partitions or snaking structures. The blocks flat-pack for portability and storage, expanding up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) or any length between.

modular

softwall + softblock is a modular system of flexible space partitions. Elements are stackable and come in standard heights ranging from 1 – 10 feet (30.5 – 305 centimetres) tall. softwall + softblock connect horizontally by magnetic end panels, making it possible to create endless lengths of walls or stack and link blocks to shape entire environments.

material

The translucent white textile softwall + softblock have a visually delicate appearance reminiscent of Japanese washi paper, and the pattern of its fine fibres comes to life when illuminated. A non-woven textile made from polyethylene (HDPE), the material is anti-static (repels dust), tear-resistant and water-resistant. Made to order for molo, our textile is a bright white that has an impressive colour consistency over time. It is easy to maintain and can be wiped clean with a soft cloth, water and liquid dish soap.

textile softwall + softblock and its paper sibling are recyclable; both have been welcomed into Google Portico’s catalogue of healthy building materials.

walls with integrated lighting

Optional LED ribbons wind through horizontal tunnels that are in each softwall + softblock, to transform these elements into expressive, luminous space partitions.
