The Swell Ceiling System is an acoustic drop ceiling tile product series that transforms office interiors through both cutting edge aesthetics and acoustical performance. Made from recycled water bottles, the four modular tiles can be rotated and configured in multiple orientations to create endlessly customizable ceiling sculptures.
TURF’s carved tiles emulate the modularity of standard tile options but are enhanced with ‘V-channel’ patterns carved into the surface. By carving into the surface of the material, multiple colors are revealed, creating new aesthetic opportunities while also increasing the effective surface area of the acoustic absorbing material.
Facet is constructed by folding a single piece of felt around an internal 4-sided French cleat frame that allows the end user to endlessly rotate, swap, and alternate the tiles to customize their office space on a whim.
