New Horizons Collection

Best of 2021
Nominee
Kirei’s New Horizons collection features five new EchoPanel acoustic products, defined by simple lines and minimalist textures. Designed and curated in collaboration with distinguished Industrial Designer Michael DiTullo, the new products—EchoEdge, EchoLine45, EchoLine Subway, EchoEmboss, and EchoTile Ascent—add a sophisticated architectural element to any interior space. The series nods to a new horizon of acoustic design—one that facilitates healthier interior environments that are visually compelling, acoustically balanced, and easy for designers and architects to specify. New Horizons joins the existing suite of celebrated EchoPanel products, providing architects and designers with a seemingly endless array of customizable, eco-friendly acoustic solutions that cater to any commercial project’s unique acoustic and aesthetic requirements. As a sustainable design material, Kirei’s EchoPanel is a decorative, acoustically absorbent panel with a felt-like finish, offering sound absorption with unbeatable aesthetics in 31 colorways. Made from 100% PET plastic and containing at least 60% post-consumer content, the entire EchoPanel line includes wall panels, ceiling systems, tiles, and partitions.

Notes

Highlights of the New Horizons collection include:EchoEdge: Featuring three standard styles (Level, Wave, and Pulse), with additional customization available, EchoEdge provides radical sound-absorbing feature walls through the modular fin system. Designed to tune out the noise and turn up the visual dynamism, EchoEdge delivers a tactile wall experience ideal for spaces in need of low profile, high-absorption acoustic design. EchoLine 45: A new angle on love, EchoLine 45 energizes spaces with dynamic lines that are ‘going places.’ EchoLine 45’s classic v-cut grooves, which are placed at 45 degree angles, capture eyes and sound waves alike. Available in four standard widths —.5, 1, 2, and 4 inches— the simple, classic angles are scalable for any sized space, from small reception areas to large public spaces. EchoLine Subway: A reimagined classic, EchoLine Subway’s modern, streamlined style allows designers to soften an industrial look, or add timeless design flair. The interlocking panels and beveled edges create a completely seamless look while helping to acoustically tune the room.EchoEmboss: Available in three styles, EchoEmboss embraces the trend of tactile surfaces and three-dimensional textures. These floor-to-ceiling panels, developed by Kirei manufacturing partner Woven Image, create visual depth through the subtle play of light and shadow. Patterns include the linear Zen, the origami-inspired Ion, and the dramatic, diamond-like Gem. EchoTile Ascent: The peaked shapes of EchoTile Ascent drape large spaces in linear allure. The soft, corrugated design and slight reveal create a consistent, dimensional look. Similarly, the hollow, thermo-formed tiles can achieve an NRC of up to .90 to deliver upscale acoustics disguised as a sophisticated design statement.

Since 2002, Kirei has brought beautiful, sustainable and functional design elements to interior designers, architects and end users across North America. Kirei continues its mission to “Inspire a Beautiful World” through a design ethos based on elegant and sustainable design. To date, that intrepid focus has resulted in diverting over 250 million plastic bottles from landfills, giving each bottle renewed purpose as a new design material. This mission has also provided designers with unique products and acoustic solutions to help design great spaces to live, work and play. As such, Kirei distributes EchoPanel and AKUART, decorative and functional designer acoustic products that give designers the visual and acoustic tools to create productive, healthy interiors.
