Kvadrat has now released a new design by the french designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec. ‘clouds’ is a textile system, which lies somewhere in between furniture and curtains. The system is modular and evolves as elements are either added or removed.
‘Clouds’ is fully dependant on the user to sculpt its three-dimensional form to reflect their personal expression. each piece in the system is made from kvadrat textiles formed into small triangles. tabs on the outside of each piece allow them to be joined together with special elastic bands. the tiles can be assembled together to create different forms, like a decorative screen or divider and comes in a multitude of colours.
