Air Series
The Air Series of acoustical partitions bring beauty to any space and promote a calmer working environment. Nature, with its shifting seasons and multitude of forms, is the source of inspiration for the Air Series. Snowflakes, blooming flowers and autumnal leaves are the Air Series organic representations while a dimensional cone motif is more abstract. Airflake, Airbloom, Airleaf and Aircone modules are produced of compression-molded fabric-covered fiber felt. The modules are assembled in pattern using plastic clips to create partitions that can be mounted with a straight rail to the ceiling or to the wall. Curved rails are available for Airflake, Airbloom and the Airleaf in three different radii.
Stefan Borselius was born in Höllviken, at the southwestern tip of Sweden. He is a trained cabinetmaker having mastered his craft at the Steneby School. Stefan then pursued a Bachelor’s degree in furniture design at the Carl Malmsten School of Art in Stockholm and a Master’s degree from Konstfack, the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm. Stefan has won several design prizes and awards, and some of the products he has designed are represented in the collections of the Swedish National Museum in Stockholm. He has designed the Air Series for Abstracta, a part of the Lammhults Design Group.

Airflake modules in compression-molded fabric-covered fiber felt are formed into a variety of open or closed hexagonal shapes that are 15.7” high by 14.2” wide. A larger Airflake XL option is also available (27.5”h x 23.6”w). The flakes are designed to provide visual separation and sound absorption. Depending upon their configuration, Airflake partitions achieves NRC ranges from .25 (open) to .65 (closed). Airflake is delivered with short and long plastic mounting clips. Partitions can be mounted to the ceiling or wall with a straight rail in three lengths 59”, 78.75” or 118” that can be joined or cut on site. Curved rails are available in 29.5”, 59” or 78.75” radii. Accessories: Drop ceiling brackets to mount Airflake directly to a drop ceiling, wire kit to hang the rail a distance from the ceiling, and a roller - used together with the clips - to make Airflake roll along the rail.

Dynamic visual spaces that produce an improved soundscape are achieved by using Airbloom. The degree of sound absorption provided by Airbloom is determined by how the modules are combined. See pattern suggestions below. The compression-molded fabric-covered fiber felt Airbloom modules are 20” high by 18.7” wide and are delivered with transparent short and long mounting pegs. The partitions can be mounted to the ceiling or wall with a straight rail in three lengths 59”, 78.75” or 118” that can be joined or cut on site. Curved rails are available in radius of 29.5”, 59” or 78.75”. It has an NRC of .65. Accessories: Drop ceiling brackets to mount Airbloom directly to a drop ceiling, wire kit to hang the rail a distance from the ceiling, and a roller - used together with the clips - to make Airbloom roll along the rail.

Airleaf is designed to gently separate space while building a pleasant soundscape. The compression-molded fabriccovered fiber felt leaves are combined in a variety of patterns to bring nature into interior spaces. See pattern suggestions below. A single leaf module is 18.3” high by 11.3” wide. Airleaf is delivered with short and long plastic mounting clips. The leaves can be mounted to the ceiling or wall with a straight rail in three lengths 59”, 78.75” or 118” that can be joined or cut on site. Curved rails are available in 29.5”, 59” or 78.75” radii. Airleaf partitions achieves an NRC of .15. Accessories: Drop ceiling brackets to mount Airleaf directly to a drop ceiling, wire kit to hang the rail a distance from the ceiling, and a roller - used together with the clips - to make the Airleaf roll along the rail.
