This is the second Kvadrat showroom by Bouroullec, situated in a harbour industrial building. As the first showroom was the starting point for the development of the North Tiles, this new space integrates the product 'Clouds'. Inspired by the direct view onto the sea and the open windows on both sides of the long hall-like, the concept is to occupy the space without intervening onto the walls. Wide wooden boxes, covered with fabric, delimitate working areas and the meeting room. The showroom is openly stretched on one side, using hangers and steelwood shelves to show fabrics. A large Clouds motorized wall opens and closes with a touch of a switch, to split the space between the showroom and the office area, while softening the general acoustics. At first sight, only appear geometric abstract shapes of fabric and wood. Details seem to have disappeared. A very peculiar atmosphere derives from this soft abstraction as a kind of visual calm emanates from the place, almost destabilizing.
