Continue your design beyond the backdrop.

Custom-printed textiles can cover ceilings, floors, lightboxes, speakers and three-dimensional shapes. Choose from light-blocking or light-diffusing materials, perforated fabrics that let sound pass through, and durable options made for outdoor use.

And print is only part of the story. With precision laser cutting, vector artwork can become detailed patterns, cut-out shapes or decorative curtains with clean, sealed edges.

Why stop at one layer?

Place transparent or translucent prints in front of solid backdrops, scenery or other prints, and the different layers start to work together. The result can shift with the viewing angle and lighting, revealing or obscuring different parts of the design.

Play with depth, transparency and light to turn multiple printed surfaces into one layered composition.

And that’s just one way to get creative with printed textiles. Discover more ideas via the link in the comments.

When your print needs transparency, mesh delivers.

Printed mesh lets you control how much remains visible behind the design. A fine mesh can look almost like a solid printed surface, while a more open structure allows light, scenery or architecture to show through.

It can also be used to conceal speakers while allowing sound to pass through, or to create changing visual effects when lit from behind.

One moulding cloth, many creative directions.

From raw metallic reflections to natural-looking textures, AluShape comes in a range of finishes for different scenic applications. Choose from gold and silver finishes, realistic tree, stone and rock prints, or a white paintable version that can also be used as a projection surface.

Looking for something completely custom? A self-adhesive version lets you cover the aluminium core with a material of your choice.

One material, endless shapes.

AluShape is a lightweight moulding cloth with an aluminium core that you can shape by hand into sculptural set pieces, textured surfaces and custom stage elements.

Squeeze it, fold it, make it your own. The flame-retardant material holds it form without additional support, so you can experiment freely with volume and texture.

And when the show is over? Simply reshape it to create something new for the next production.

AluShape comes in a range of different styles. Explore them via the link in the comments.

How do you divide a space without putting up walls?

Translucent fabrics create separation while still allowing light to pass through. You can use them as space dividers, backdrops or decorative elements without completely closing off the space.

Choose from shimmering silver drapes, custom-printed textiles in brand colours, bold gradients or your own design. Hang them from curtain tracks for soft movement or tension them in frames for a more structured look.

This makes them especially useful for concept stores, museums, fashion shows and other spaces where the layout or look may change over time.

Colour can define a space without taking attention away from the art.

For Unlocked at Belfius Art Gallery, custom-coloured sheer fabrics create translucent partitions, dividers and tunnels alongside works by Belgian artists.

The lightweight panels are thermally cut, so the edges need no hemming and remain clean and almost invisible. As visitors move through the exhibition, gentle air currents bring subtle movement to the fabric.

Soft textiles bring warmth and structure to this contemporary showroom.

To define the open space, Quax chose voile curtains to showcase its furniture collection. Mounted on ShowTex tracks and hung in soft pleats, the sheer curtains create subtle backdrops for each setting while naturally guiding visitors through the showroom.

It's a simple way to divide a large space without closing it off.

A gallery curtain isn't only about what you see.

At M+ Museum, floor-to-ceiling Velours Delta CS helps define the main gallery of Design Ah! Experience the Wonder of Everyday Design: Exploring the Workings of Design.

The medium-weight synthetic velvet creates a smooth, neutral backdrop that keeps the focus on the exhibits. Its drape gives the large surfaces a clean finish, while the fabric also helps absorb sound in the gallery.

It's a good example of how one material can influence both the look and acoustics of an exhibition space.
