Ceiling ‘clouds’ add design pop to busy commercial spaces

EchoCloud units are available in four styles.


By David Barista, Editorial Director | December 18, 2017

Designed for complex, high-volume spaces such as those in restaurants, hotel lobbies, and corporate offices, these customizable cloud units absorb sound and reduce reverberation while adding design style to interior spaces.

EchoCloud units are available in four styles—Deep Cloud, 3D Cloud, Flat Cloud (pictured), and Perforated Flat Cloud—and in multiple shapes. Made from recycled materials, including plastic bottles, EchoCloud comes in the company’s 20 standard colors.

To date, more than 80 million plastic bottles have been diverted from landfill and turned into interior panel products from Kirei.
