FLORAL – Acoustic modules crafted from materials leftover from the furniture industry

When designing for the furniture industry, I observe the “mountains” of scraps composed of various materials leftover from production processes. Within these materials earmarked for disposal, I discern abundant hidden potential and encounter intriguing creative challenges. Moreover, I perceive a profound rationale in the notion that converting potential pollutants into diverse products yields a maximal qualitative and value transformation. One of my projects, the acoustic module named FLORAL, embodies this ethos. It emerges from years of collaboration with a furniture industry company. The structure and materiality of FLORAL are shaped by the attributes of secondary raw materials: the dimensions of leftover upholstery fabrics, spools from fabric rolls, and cuttings of acoustic filler. FLORAL’s modular design involves assembling six analogous segments around a central segment to create a seven-part module. This modular unit then serves as the nucleus around which six similar modules coalesce to form a larger segment. Similarly, the structure can expand to desired monumental dimensions, thus tailoring it to specific spaces. The FLORAL acoustic module system is engineered for both private and public interiors.
