FLIP

Modular, sustainable acoustic walls

Winner in category Workspace

VANK_FLIP is a modular, mobile acoustic partition system for flexible space organization in modern workplaces. Its innovative design features 3D panels that significantly reduce noise. The system achieves sustainability by using eco-friendly materials like plant-based biocomposite or recycled rPET, promoting durability, and reducing the need for permanent construction, thereby lowering the carbon footprint.

The name of this office panel system, ”FLIP”, is spot-on. It immediately conveys that the product offers more than hemp construction or acoustic dampening; it suggests functionality, movement, and modular adaptability. The formed, brick like rectangular elements introduce compelling visual interest, complementing the material’s natural texture. FLIP is a mature and well considered office panel system that thoughtfully demonstrates the multifaceted benefits of hemp-based product design.
