Glass, wood, bamboo or stone? You already knew that. But did you know that Jansen Wall Solutions’ modular partition walls can also be upholstered in fabric? Our upholstered Partition walls combine flexibility, acoustic comfort and pure experience. Because sometimes a wall should not only be functional, but also feel warm. As we say ourselves: design without limits.
A space only becomes truly powerful when it appeals to multiple senses. Upholstery adds a soft, tactile layer to your interior design concept. Think warm meeting rooms, homey workplaces or striking hospitality environments.
For the finishing, we work with quality fabrics of Belgian manufacture, including Aristide. These fabrics are suitable for both furniture and wall applications and combine a refined look with the necessary technical properties. The range varies from subtle structures to more pronounced designs and colors, so that each wall finish can be tailored to the interior concept and functional requirements of your project.
Acoustics as a silent asset
Acoustics is not an aesthetic sideshow, but a determining factor for comfort and performance. Research shows that disturbing ambient noise is one of the biggest frustrations in open-plan office environments. Excessive reverberation reduces concentration and productivity. In healthcare environments, excessive reverberation can even lead to additional stress for patients and staff.
The ideal reverberation time in an office environment averages between 0.5 and 0.8 seconds, depending on room function. In hard, minimalist interiors without sufficiently absorbent materials, this reverberation time often increases significantly. This is where upholstery plays an important role.
By covering our modular Partition walls with high-quality fabric finishes, we increase the sound absorption of the wall surface. Fabric Partition walls act as an additional absorbent layer that traps sound waves instead of bouncing them back into the room. Thus, they achieve a significant improvement in absorption value.
Unlimited possibilities
With the J’Clickd and J’Plus Partition walls, you shape and reshape any space in no time. Add a fabric finish and the design freedom becomes even greater. Upholstery makes a wall not just a partition element, but a full-fledged part of the interior design concept. Depending on the application and the desired look, you can choose a variety of textiles:
- Finely woven fabrics with an even texture for a calm, professional look in offices or conference rooms.
- Coarser weaves or bouclé textures that bring extra depth and tactility to hospitality or lounge environments.
- Technical, hard-wearing fabrics with high Martindale values for heavily used areas such as healthcare facilities or public buildings.
- Acoustically performing textiles specifically designed to absorb sound and reduce reverberation.
There are also fabrics with fire-retardant properties, low-maintenance coatings or antibacterial treatments, depending on project requirements.
Colors as a strategic tool
Similarly, the color choice of your fabric is rarely purely aesthetic. It influences perception, behavior and identity:
- Soft, neutral tones such as sand, beige or light gray create calm and focus. Ideal for workplaces where concentration is key.
- Warm earth tones enhance the feeling of comfort and security in hospitality and healthcare environments.
- Bold accent colors can be used for wayfinding, branding or visually delineating areas within open spaces.
- Ton-sur-ton combinations provide subtlety and sophistication without visual crowding.
In addition to plain fabrics, subtle patterns or graphic motifs are also possible. By strategically placing patterns, you can, for example, distinguish meeting areas from open workplaces or create a certain dynamic in a long corridor. Our LUBDUB design cell is happy to think along with you. From concept to technical elaboration.
The power of combination
Upholstery integrates perfectly with glass, wood, steel or bamboo. Because our systems are modular, different finishes can easily be combined within one project or adjusted later. In this way, the space grows with the needs of the user. In short, with a fabric finish, a modular Partition wall evolves from a purely functional element to a design statement that combines aesthetics, acoustics and flexibility
