Cool Hunting
The kings of the modern modular wall hanging, the Bouroullec Brothers, recently released their latest beautiful creation for Danish textile company Kvadrat. Entitled Cloud, a new hanging system allows endless variations of nebulous forms to be used in any way your imagination sees fit.
Cloud comes in two fabrics and seven colour ways. Through the simple device of a customised elastic band, tiles can be built up into an infinite number of forms and functions. This new product follows in the footsteps of North Tiles, the modular wall system that the Bouroullecs designed for Kvadrat in 2006.
Textile projects for Kvadrat have evolved from the Bouroullecs' plastic Algue and Twigs hanging screens produced by Vitra. We love the way these systems generously hand over the creative process at point of purchase, making interior design a collaborative event between designer and consumer.
