Weave Mosaik

 

Designed for FilzFelt, Mosaik is reimagining traditional woven textile patterns combined with modern technology from Artaic, to piece together sound absorption in an array of playful patterns on a large scale acoustic wall.  

Weave is a unique method of manufacturing fabrics that involves intertwining two sets of yarns at right angles to produce one piece of cloth. To create a traditional weave on such a large scale, I started modeling the weave using shredded watercolor pieces of paper, then I slowly wove the pieces over and under one another.

Artaic is a Boston-based fabricator of custom tile solutions for commercial and residential settings, pairing innovative modern technology with the centuries-old craft of mosaic design. And now, Artaic brings that technology to 100% Wool Design Felt. Mosaik, a custom FilzFelt acoustic wall application, uses automation to customize and assemble mosaics from any source of inspiration. Mosaik patterns, large and small, are composed of individual tiles— available in over ninety colors of pure wool felt— that are designed to fit together seamlessly for simple and straightforward installation.
