Natural surfaces for architecture
Materials should integrate naturally into architecture — without being defined by their function.
ESSENCE is a collection of natural surfaces designed for acoustic systems, walls, ceilings and furniture.
One surface. Different functions.
MATERIAL & PERFORMANCE
Natural surfaces. Different functions.
ESSENCE is made from natural fibres and developed as a surface for both acoustic and non-acoustic applications.
Its open fibre structure allows the acoustic function of the material or system behind the surface to be maintained – without visible perforations or slats.
The same material expression can therefore be used across acoustic systems, walls, ceilings and furniture.
DOCUMENTATION
Designed to be specified.
A surface is part of the complete construction. That is why we document ESSENCE together with the materials and systems it is applied to.
Fire performance and acoustic performance are tested across relevant substrates and applications, giving architects and manufacturers a documented basis for working with ESSENCE.
Material freedom. Documented performance.
COLLABORATION
Created for integration.
We collaborate with architects, designers and manufacturers to integrate ESSENCE into both new and existing products, systems and interior concepts.
From acoustic panels and ceilings to walls, furniture and bespoke solutions, we develop and document ESSENCE based on the specific application.
From idea to documented solution.

EXPERIENCE ESSENCE
Materials need to be experienced.
We are currently creating a new ESSENCE Material Collection featuring a selection of our natural surfaces, fibres, colours and botanical variations.
The collection is designed for architects, designers and manufacturers who want to experience the texture, colour and tactile qualities of the materials first-hand.
Order the new ESSENCE Material Collection now – and we will send it to you as soon as it is ready.
