Uncover the spectacular possibilities that await your client’s overhead space. When it comes to designing interiors, the fifth wall - commonly referred to as the ceiling - is an overlooked canvas in interior design and acoustics. However, it has the power to transform spaces when utilized creatively and cohesively with Kirei PET products. Our Baffles and Clouds allow you to change the entire feel of any space by raising or lowering its height, while ACT Tiles effortlessly let you swap out boring basics with breathtaking drop ceiling alternatives. And with Kirei Ink, you can enhance each of these products with the power of hyper-realistic printing.





In recent years, designers have turned their attention to acoustic solutions that not only serve a functional purpose but also elevate the aesthetic appeal of ceilings. Effectively achieve both practical functionality and sophisticated form through the incorporation of dazzling printed ceiling acoustics. Take any ceiling to new heights effortlessly with five of the hottest trends for perfect printed acoustic products.






1. EMBRACE NATURE'S WARMTH WITH WOOD GRAIN PRINTS

Find a new home for the timeless appeal of wood grains on your client’s ceiling. By introducing nature's soothing warmth and coziness to your project, you’ll leave clients awe-struck as they stare up. From Pointed Baffles in Pine to Deep Clouds in Dark Oak, Kirei Ink applied to ceiling acoustics will provide the textures, character, and refined ruggedness without the environmental impact of cutting down trees or the worry of picking a wood with the wrong durability or price point. With a variety of wood print options to match any style and the possibility of custom designs, these acoustic solutions seamlessly marry sustainability with sophistication.





2. UNVEIL BIOPHILIC BEAUTY FOR MORE RELAXING ROOMS

For a truly unexpected and refreshing approach, consider incorporating relaxing prints on your ceiling. Imagine gazing up at a ceiling adorned with prints that transport you to a serene natural landscape. Biophilic designs foster a calming atmosphere by reconnecting us with nature. By seamlessly merging acoustic control with the benefits of biophilia, these prints not only contribute to the aesthetic appeal but also contribute to the well-being of occupants. According to reports from the World Green Building Council, exposure to nature within indoor spaces can lead to increased productivity and wellbeing, heightened creativity, and reduced absenteeism. Create a harmonious and peaceful environment with biophilic prints that not only looks good but also contributes to the overall wellness of those within.





3. REINVIGORATE SPACES WITH MODERNISM USING ENERGETIC PRINTS

Up the excitement in your client’s space by opting for prints that exude playful energy. By combining the innovative shapes of our acoustic ceiling products with vibrant geometric patterns, you can create a visually captivating experience that transforms your ceiling into a focal point, commanding attention and injecting life into the room. Incorporating dynamic and visually stimulating elements into interior spaces has been correlated with increased creativity and a sense of vitality, making these prints and products perfect for team meeting spaces that can get lively and loud. These energetic prints not only introduce depth and modernism to your ceiling but also contribute to an engaging atmosphere, making them a game-changer for spaces that crave an revitalized aesthetic.





4. ADD LIGHTWEIGHT ELEGANCE WITH SOPHISTICATED NATURAL MATERIALS

Deliver the best of both worlds by achieving the look and style of heavy stonework without the heavy weight or sound disruption through realistic printed acoustics. Embrace the beauty of nature with natural materials, showcasing sophistication and elegance without compromising on functionality. The enduring appeal of stonework and organic fabrics transcends trends, making them a classic choice for creating a luxurious and timeless atmosphere perfect for museums or law offices. Applying these visually appealing prints to our tactile and acoustically absorbent PET offers a seamless blend of aesthetics and performance, providing a more refined and distinguished finish for any ceiling.





5. PERSONALIZE YOUR CLIENT’S EXPRESSION WITH BRANDING AND WAYFINDING

Leverage your client’s ceiling design to serve multiple purposes by incorporating acoustic features that provide functional benefits. Easily reinforce a brand's culture or guide occupants through a space by incorporating wayfinding and branding onto acoustic ceiling products for noise control and enhanced user experience. Brand identities and design story palettes easily integrate with any of our ceiling products, creating a cohesive and personalized environment that leads occupants through the physical space or through the story of the company. Providing clients with products that serve multiple needs at once, ensures a holistic and effective approach to interior design, and transforms the ceiling into a powerful space for increasing identity and functionality.
