The idea sounds crazy: making a curtain out of heavy concrete. Two years ago, three designers from Memux, designed a curtain to keep out light, noise and prying eyes but more importantly to function as a decorative room divider and facade decoration.

Manufactured using a type of waffle iron technique, the concrete is pressed around a lattice-like, metal mould which creates a kind of woven surface, with small, cushion-like, solid rectangular pads.

Memux-Textil (the name of the curtain) is now a kind of wall sculpture suitable for everyday use…great result of the dialogue between the function and the form
