BuzziSpace BuzziPleat Felt Acoustic panel

A series of architectural solutions by 13&9 The BuzziPleat delivers light and sound control with architectural edge.‎ This series reinterprets ancient techniques used in fashion design, like smocking and pleating, to create large-scale, yet lightweight sculptural forms, made of sound-absorbing BuzziFelt.‎ Architectural folds maximize surface area, delivering exceptional acoustic performance.‎ The hanging acousticpendants can be configured with or without a light source, to marry sound control and illumination in one multi-purpose product.‎ BuzziPleat looks a lot like the must-have fashion item of the Renaissance: the ruff.‎ The designers at 13&9 were in fact inspired by historic sewing techniques such as smocking and pleating.‎ These techniques could be used – before elastic existed – to make comfortable clothing with the required flexibility and stretch.‎ When applied to stiff BuzziFelt, the fabric folds into a complex architectural form that does not require any internal support.‎ What is more, the panel remains astonishingly light, which is an advantage when mounting it.‎ The architectural pleats maximise the sound-absorbent surface, thus ensuring an exceptional acoustic solution.‎ If you hang BuzziPleat from the ceiling, you can also combine it with a light source: this comes in handy above a table or seating area, for example.‎ Two designs, two sizes, many colours The collection consists of two designs; the BuzziPleat Ripple and the BuzziPleat Edel.‎ Both can be either hung from the ceiling or attached to the wall.‎ Each model is also available in two sizes, with 100 or 150 cm diameter.‎ BuzziPleat is available in BuzziFelt (OffWhite, StoneGrey, Lime or Anthracite).‎ The finishing thread is OffWhite or Black.‎ You can also opt to line the BuzziPleat with an extra fabric for more colour and finish possibilities.‎   Further info from manufacturer on BuzziPleat BuzziSpace
