Sound absorbers can be so much more than just
technology; Stone Designs succeeds in offering
emotional functionality as well. Gaia, which was
presented at the 2016 Milan Furniture Fair, consists
of four asymmetrical pieces representing Mother
Earth’s four elements: fire, earth, wind and water.
The 100% hot-moulded polyester form felt modules
can be combined in an infinite range of possible
combinations that result in three-dimensional figures,
which will stand out both as decoration and
acoustic control in one and the same product.
‘Gingko has a different take and builds visual
compositions’, says Cutu Mazueolos, who runs
Stone Designs together with Eva Prego. ‘It’s not just
an acoustic panel that you build square by square;
it’s a landscape generator which can be a cloudy
sky in winter, a lush mountain slope in the spring, a
forest ablaze with colour during the autumn. With
this simple shape inspired by Japanese Gingko
leaves the user can provide new inspirational
landscapes simply by changing the colours!’
Japanese tradition meets Nordic design in an
acoustic product which reduces ambient noise and
echoes in any room. Gingko can easily be mounted
on walls thanks to magnetic fittings. Cutu Mazueolos
and Eva Prego stress that their designs are finalised
by the users’ creativity. Both Gaia and Gingko can
be combined in a plethora of different ways with the
help of Blå Station’s Wall Planner; just enter the wall
measurements and select combinations of colours.
Furthermore, Acoustic Facts makes it possible to
calculate the exact acoustic properties and the
number of acoustic absorbers required for any room.
Look out for new surprises from Stone Designs and
Blå Station at the upcoming Milan Furniture Fair!
