Artful Possibilities
With a wide array of panel shapes, sizes, and three-dimensional options available in over 350 Xorel textile patterns, textures and colors, design opportunities with Artform are unlimited. Fully customized and signature designs are achievable with standard product, without ever replicating the same look twice.
Added Dimension
Three-dimensional panels, available in ve shapes, can be used on their own or in concert with other Xorel Artform panels to add an enhanced sculptural element
to any installation.
Dimension and structural variety also can be achieved by mixing panels of different substrates within the same composition.
A Sound Decision
Addressing acoustics in open areas remains a constant challenge when designing interior spaces. Xorel Artform nished panels provide an effective solution for sound absorption and echo reduction while granting creative design opportunities limited only by the imagination.

By simply rotating panels, design connection points are altered – changing the highlights and shadows of the shapes to create new composition possibilities. Versatility in application is easily achieved because Xorel Artform is uninhibited by clips or track systems. Panels can be applied in small or large wall installations, with designs extending onto the ceiling if desired.
