Geometric Curtains

By Aart van Bezooijen - March 12, 2007

Hannah Allijn's curtain concept will soon be available for modern living rooms. Earlier, we spotted Hannah's work at the Dutch Design Week (see gallery) - where she graduated at the Design Academy on a new curtain concept that was made to get rid of the usual curtain dragging and the traditional vertical curtain strokes when opened. She enters the third dimension by faceting the curtain surface with foam triangles. The mechanism of cords support easy opening and every time you open the curtains its faceted surface reveals a unique geometric play of light.

I would like to see how it looks fully suspended and how it looks while it is being pulled up.

I like the idea. Great for insulation and sound absorption.

Fabulous!
I love to see true design, not cookie cutter homes.
I would like to see a photo of the curtains when they are covering the windows.
Good luck on your career, Hannah!

I like 'em and the foam should have good insulating properties.
