Kvadrat Twilight Curtain
TWILIGHT CURTAIN
TWILIGHT CURTAIN
Twilight is a dense dimout curtain designed by Patricia Urquiola, which offers excellent drapeability and light protection.
Constructed with black yarns between the front and back sides, it lets very little light through. The fabric is piece-dyed. Due to its blend of different polyester yarns, the dye is absorbed in an irregular way, giving Twilight a natural look.

PATRICIA URQUIOLA
Patricia Urquiola studied architecture and design at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Technical University of Madrid) and completed her studies at the Politecnico di Milano where graduated under the mentorship of Achille Castiglioni. In Spain, she was awarded the Golden Medal for Merits in Art and received the Cross of the Order of Isabella the Catholic.
In 2001 Patricia Urquiola founded her own studio where she specialised in industrial product design, architecture, art direction and strategy consulting.
Creative Director of Cassina since 2015, she works with a roster of leading design companies. Patricia Urquiola also gives lectures at leading universities and has work shown in prominent museums and design galleries across the world. In 2010 she designed, in collaboration with Giulio Ridolfo, The Dwelling Lab, a spectacular installation for Kvadrat and BMW. The installation was shown at Salone del Mobile 2010.

PERFORMANCE
LIGHTFASTNESS5-6 (ISO 1-8)
ISO 105-B02 Lightfastness relates to the ability of a textile to retain its colour under light. When testing for lightfastness, samples are exposed to artificial daylight for a specified period. The evaluation scale ranges from 1 (worst) to 8 (best). An increase of one point corresponds to a doubling of the lightfastness, i.e. the same fading takes twice as long.
VISUAL LIGHT TRANSMISSION0.00%
Light transmittance indicates the percentage of the visible light penetrating the textile. Densely woven textiles in dark colours usually have a lower light transmittance, whereas loosely woven fabrics in light colours allow more light to pass through.
AIRFLOW1374 Pa s/m
EN ISO 9053-1 Airflow resistance influences the sound absorbing qualities of a textile. Typically, the denser the construction of the textile, the higher the value.
ABSORPTION
0.55/Class D (Absorption flat) 0.80/Class B (Absorption folded)
EN ISO 354 Acoustic absorption is indicated as αw-value which approximately corresponds to the percentage of sound absorbed. For instance, an αw-value of 0,4 translates into 40% absorption of sound. Acoustic absorption of a textile is measured in its flat and draped state.

There are differing requirements concerning the flame-retardancy of textiles dependent on the area of application, country or even region. Our textiles pass the majority of international standards and are also tested for a selection of regional requirements.
