50 years ago, Danish architect and designer Verner Panton created the ground-breaking interior design for the German publishing house Der Spiegel in Hamburg. In collaboration with the Panton family, Offecct now has the privilege to re-edit the acoustic Spiegel Panel true to the original design.
In 1969 Verner Panton created the iconic interior of the German publishing house Der Spiegel in Hamburg. Panton wanted to use all available surfaces in the building for the best possible working environment and developed a system with acoustic panels.
“The pyramid shape is ideal for absorbing sound, while creating an architectural marker in the room, for example in open office landscapes. We are very happy and proud to have the opportunity to re-edit this ground-breaking design and give it a new life”, says Offecct's Brand Manager Maria Olofsson.
The project has been made possible through a collaboration with the Panton family.
The idea, shape and dimensions of the panels follow the original design, while the material and structure has been adapted to meet current rules and standards. The Spiegel Panel is made of polyester fibre which is folded into shape, making it lightweight and easy to recycle, and it is available in the three original depths.
