Tapi
The silent furniture for limited living conditions
Tapi is the start of a product line concept called "Silent Furniture", which aims to utilize space efficiently. Silent Furniture integrates sound-insulating materials into conventional furniture to reduce noise and improve quality of life without the need for additional sound-absorbing products such as room dividers. Tapi, a folding table made from the recycled material vitAcoustic (PET felt), offers flexible use in different positions to meet the user's needs while creating a unique experience in feel, look and acoustics.
