Kvadrat Frequency
Kvadrat’s latest Frequency collection explores how universal phenomena, from light and colour to motion and rhythm, are experienced.
Change is constant. Shifting frequencies influence every aspect of our senses. How can we explore this experience through sight and touch? The Frequency collection dives into this idea while introducing a gentle sense of flow, balance, and luminosity into spaces.
The creators behind the Frequency collection – Creative Director Isa Glink in collaboration with Studio Meyers & Fügmann and Studio Greiling – investigate the dynamic relationship between tonal and structural frequencies through advanced spinning, weaving, printing, and dyeing techniques.
By uniting tactile constructions with pigments that absorb and reflect light waves differently, their designs spark senses with a scale of vibrant surfaces and prismatic colour fields. Frequency also looks into how regenerative, refined materials — such as soft llama, plush alpaca, and crisp pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) — can reshape the perception of colour, touch, and composition. At the same time, the collection offers recyclable monomaterials like flameretardant Trevira CS and sophisticated blends of organic cotton with lustrous hemp.
For the launch of the new collection, their curtain textiles and carpets were presented as part of a floating installation above water in the Kvadrat showroom during 3daysofdesign in Copenhagen. The surface of the water was set in motion, creating — together with the textiles — a multisensory experience and a holistic concept to be felt with all senses.
