The project “Soft Frequency” explores the potential of textiles as an active architectural element that shapes how space is experienced visually, tactually and acoustically. It consists of a modular system of hand-tufted textile panels that simultaneously define the identity of an interior and contribute to its acoustic quality.
The panels are conceived as a flexible system that can be freely combined, expanded and adapted to different spatial contexts – from private interiors and music studios to coworking spaces, hotels and public interiors. Their relief surface, created through the process of hand tufting, generates a dynamic interplay of light, shadow and texture, transforming the wall into a spatial element that is both visually expressive and functional.
The project questions the possibility of soft materials taking on a role traditionally reserved for rigid architectural elements. The proposed acoustic core, made from recycled textile waste, opens up the possibility of developing a sustainable product that connects artistic textile practice, functional design and the principles of the circular economy. Rather than treating textiles as a decorative finishing layer, “Soft Frequency” proposes a new approach to interior design in which textiles become an active, multifunctional building element that shapes both the atmosphere and the performance of space.
