Acoustic Curtains - CGI Textile Solutions for Kvadrat

Project at a glance

  • The task. Build a 3D model of Kvadrat Waves and show it in four interior concepts developed around the brief, following the client's specifications for fabric drape, position and wave pattern, including open and closed states.
  • The purpose. Show how Waves can divide offices, education spaces, hotel lobbies and meeting rooms. Overall views establish the architectural context, while closer perspectives show the fabric and its form.
  • The benefits. One product model connects all four scenes and is a starting point for further images — new materials, colors or camera angles get checked against the references. Kvadrat specifies a sound transmission loss of 12–15 dB for the curtain; our images show the product within a setting, they don't verify its acoustic performance.

The full series

One product, four settings

The CGI series shows Waves in an open-plan office, an education space, a hotel lobby and a meeting room. Each scene was developed around the client brief — color, furniture and daylight distinguish the four interiors, while the curtain system provides a common reference point across all of them.

Modeling the fabric, not just the shape

We modeled the wave pattern and fabric drape as detailed 3D geometry to Kvadrat's specifications, accounting for how the curtain hangs, how the fabric rests, and how the waves form when it's open or closed. Fabric scans provided the basis for the digital materials, aligned through UV mapping and adjusted against the lighting in each scene. Close-ups reveal the weave and sheen; the manual track system is part of the model too.

Four rooms, one connected series

Camera angles, colors and lighting can be adapted for further images, with each new variation checked against the product and material references. This case study covers the CGI product images and brand environments we created for Kvadrat — a configurator or AR application would call for separate model preparation and testing.
