The origin
We came from painting and knew how to stretch fabric over a frame. The challenge was something else: getting a fabric that, besides dressing the wall, would absorb the sound of the room. That was how KalmArt began.
We come from Fine Arts
We design and make in Valencia. We didn't come to this from construction, but from the canvas.
How it is made
Open-pore natural fabric, linen or cotton, stretched over a frame, with absorbent material behind. The open pore is not an aesthetic detail: it is what lets sound through to the core. A closed fabric, however beautiful, returns sound just like the wall.
With or without acoustics
Not every space needs acoustic correction. That is why the same panel exists in a purely decorative version, with direct printing and artists' work. Acoustics is an option, not a condition.
More than 150 clients.

Artists
Two artists work on panels with techniques that do not close the pore of the fabric.
