A new generation of flooring opens up new possibilities

 OBJECT CARPET presents FREESTILE, the next generation carpet tiles: an innovative, especially flat weaving technique gives the floor covering its trim modern – for a carpet tile – extremely hard surface, yet still preserves all advantages of textile floor coverings with regard to comfort and health.

16 different, individualistic models in 4 respective colour schemes constitute the point of departure of a unique spatial design. 

The key feature is that each motif is cut into a large individual 50 x 50 cm tile. Freely laid, an ever new total picture is created, which is surprisingly harmonious. 
 

Wilkhahn: Metrik, Design White ID

With Metrik the comfortable concept of cantilever chairs has been transformed into a contemporary design: Backrest, seat and armrests create a monolithic body whose form-fit connection with the tubular steel frame is only revealed by a narrow gap.

Organic and comfortable areas in the seat are combined with clearly defined and simple geometries which form precise light lines. The integration of all the components plays with contrasts such as distinctiveness and neutrality, comfort and an understated appeal, as well as modernity and timeless design. A choice of six colours for the body and frame and plenty of different options and colours for the covers ensure huge design scalability.  

YDOL Acoustics introduces RELAX Twist

RELAX Twist is a dynamic acoustic wall system consisting of individual controllable absorber modules. The modules can be closed to a wall or opened at any angle, electrically or manually.

Due to the strong absorption effect, even in an open position there is a remarkable reduction in the level from one room to the other. The closed position is equivalent to the insulation effect of a dry wall, but also generates a massive sound absorption for the two generated rooms.
