dB
Product Information
dB is a screen system that serves as a discreet scenery set for open office environments and designed to be brought to life by the people who work there. Thomas Bernstrand’s aim in designing dB was to enable people to make an impression on their surroundings – to cast the individual as a co-creator.
The screens can thus be upholstered in any fabric, and the series includes a whiteboard-faced screen, a cork-faced screen for bulletins, and a range of clever accessories to accommodate photos, magazines and other personal items. Bernstrand’s reputed mischievousness as a designer shows up in the form of an optional flower pot, balanced improbably on the top edge of the dB screen.

Soundwave Sky
Soundwave Sky is designed by Marre Moerel who got the inspiration for the sound absorbing panel from the silhouette of cities, in particular that of New York, but the pattern can also be seen as an abstraction of nature. The panels have a regular, rectangular form. When placed horizontally a straight line is formed at the top which is then broken into slightly angled horizontal lines. The pattern reflects New Yorkﾒs grid of streets and can also be seen as an enormous mountain range from a birdﾒs eye view. Vertically the pattern is transformed into skyscrapers or primeval rock formations. The sound absorbing effect can be varied depending on how the panel is mounted. Vertically placed Sky reflects the sound back and forth. Horizontally place it instead absorbed the sound.
