The next generation imagery of comfort with the Stitch acoustic floor screens by Abstracta

Wise words tell us that by doing what we love, we’ll never work a day in our life. When it comes to an ambiance as nurturing and rewarding as a vocation, Abstracta’s Stitch acoustic floor screens deliver an unmatched feeling of coziness beyond smart space partitions and outstanding sound absorption properties.

A maestro’s vision

Acclaimed Swedish interior designer Stefan Borselius marked another successful guest collection for Abstracta through the Stitch floor dividing screens, an audacious experiment translating his artistry of sofas into new creative terrains. Under Stefan Borselius' unique vision, the Stitch floor dividing screens expanded Abstracta’s expertise in office furniture towards showrooms, leisure hubs, cafés, and even home interiors.

Why Curved Workspaces Feel More Comfortable

The Stitch collection reflects Stefan Borselius’ creative response to the stiff, angular designs that dominate many modern offices. Research in neuroarchitecture shows that people naturally feel more relaxed and comfortable in spaces that include curved shapes rather than sharp edges. According to Banaei et al. (2017), curved forms can positively influence mood and emotional well-being. In workplace settings, softer lines and flowing shapes can support creativity, improve focus, and help employees feel more comfortable and included.

Architects are increasingly blending curved interiors with building structures to create environments that feel more natural and inviting. This shift in design thinking highlights how the shape of a space can directly impact productivity and overall experience. A well-known example is the Tianjin Binhai Library in China, where smooth and continuous forms create a visually calming and inspiring environment.

How Curved Furniture Can Improve Office Experience

Although many designers are drawn to bold and angular styles, studies by Grobman and Shemesh (2015) show that most people prefer spaces that include curved elements. Rounded shapes often remind us of familiar surroundings, such as the comfort of home or natural environments, which helps create a sense of ease. This connection can make a workspace feel more welcoming and less stressful.

Completely redesigning an office interior is not always practical, but adding thoughtfully designed furniture can still make a noticeable difference. Office partition screens with gentle curves can improve how a space looks and feels while also making better use of available space. By introducing softer shapes through furniture, businesses can create a more comfortable and productive work environment without major structural changes.

An office to indulge in

Beyond their opulent coziness, the cocooning vibe of the Stitch floor dividing screens comes with outstanding sound absorbing qualities exquisitely mastered through the unrivaled Abstracta know-how. The signature Abstracta filling used for its innovative acoustic solutions is adjusted in a wooden frame and padded into a plushy fabric. The rich upholstery is further shaped into a checked geometry by stitches that recreate the pampering vibe of cushions and padded down jackets. The upholstered construction has been calculated at a 85mm thickness to deliver both the optimal sound attenuation, as well as crafted proportions. The rich padding creates a unique visual effect of comfort thanks to their lacquered ash legs, an additional reference to home furniture.

A cushioning colour palette

The Stitch collection is available in the flamboyant Salsa fabric designed by Abstracta to recreate colours by inter-weaving yarns of two different hues. The scintillating yarns further blend into a 9 colours palette exquisitely curated by Abstracta to include both luscious grays, as well as elegant, yet lively shades of navy and Prussian blue, plum red and, honey or dijon yellow. Made to order, the screens can also be customised through Abstracta’s bespoke service.

A geometry to play with

Towering at 1540mm, the floor partition screens are available on three different versions of width -810mm, 1060mm, and 1310mm-all exquisitely harmonised with their 85mm thickness. The partition panels can be merged through connection fittings which allow creating wall-wide screens or perpendicular space divisions. The Stitch collection also includes table desk dividing screens of 650mm height and four versions of width that go from 860mm to 1460mm to 1660mm to 1860mm. Also available as side panels, the table desk screens can be adjusted for modesty.

Abstracta Stitch floor dividing screens come with a 5 year guarantee if handled within a normal wear and tear treatment and not subjected to abuse or misuse.
