Vitra - Algues

Algues are interior design components and decorative elements at the same time. A seemingly plant-like plastic object which is delicate and flexible yet very strong. In its own right, it works as a simple decoration element with a strange poetic character.

The possibilities range from a delicate gossamer, which can serve as a trellis or light curtain, to almost opaque, thick plastic screens made up of multiple layers of Algues, for use as a room divider.

Algue calls on the creativity of its users and although it is a standardised and industrially produced modular unit, still allows room for customised solutions.

With the transparent Algue, you now have the chance to work with an almost invisible room divider and play with light effects at the same time.

25 Algues are needed for a 1 m² light network structure. If the structure needs to be denser, it is recommended that you attach the additional connectors which are available as an optional accessory.
