Toison

Cindy Sacher – Toison

The energy required to maintain thermal comfort is often underestimated. Toison addresses the projected decline in fossil energy resources and rising consumer costs. In rental buildings, where renovations are challenging and costly, conventional heating methods still prevail, often proving economically unfeasible for tenants. Toison proposes a minimalist partition system, inspired by traditional European fabric wall coverings and Japanese fusuma and shōji. Using thick Swiss wool felt panels that slide into extruded aluminum rails, this system is easy to mount on any ceiling. These partitions insulate exterior walls and allow users to divide living spaces, enhancing heat insulation. Each panel can be further customized with a range of tailor-made accessories.
