Vela Cladding System
De Castelli’s latest interior-cladding system and stand-alone wall partitions, designed by Gnosis Progetti, are composed of modular metal panels fabricated to resemble fabric blowing in the wind. That rippling form also benefits acoustic performance, and the modules, with their thin profiles, can be flexibly arranged.
