Dezeen Showroom: from lighting and seating with acoustic properties to sound-absorbing panels, the following products are among noise-controlling items recently featured on Dezeen Showroom.
Acoustic items are often required in workplaces as well as residential, education, healthcare and hospitality environments – anywhere in which noise levels can easily become out of control, or where quiet is a priority.
They are made from fibrous materials that absorb sound, such as felt, which is sometimes made using recycled plastic.
Included in the following selection is a system of ceiling panels that can be placed magnetically inside existing grid ceilings by Askia Furniture, floor and pendant lights with felt shades by Abstracta and decorative wall panels by Arturel.
Read on to see a selection of recent acoustic products listed on Dezeen Showroom, developed and manufactured by various internationally renowned studios and brands.
Sonus acoustic pods by Narbutas
Office furniture brand Narbutas has released a single-person acoustic pod characterised by its clean lines and minimalistic form.

Wave acoustic panels by Nital Patel for Arturel
Danish brand Arturel worked with designer Nital Patel on a series of wall-mounted acoustic panels that double as art pieces.
Wave acoustic panels are decorated with curving lines that Patel created in reference to Danish coastlines – this is also reflected in their being made from 100 per cent recycled plastic, 75 per cent of which comes from the sea.
