Plectere features an oversized knitted structure made from thick strips of woollen felt that double as a divider and acoustic panelling in offices.
The curtains are the result of Vonk's ongoing experiments with combining knitting techniques and unusual materials.

The 3D-knitted structure creates a flexible, semi-transparent curtain that can be produced in a wide variety of lengths, width and colours.
"The use of thick wool felt created an interesting structure with unprecedented stability that I could not have previously realised with a knit object," Vonk told Dezeen.
"This opened the way for the further development of the stable 3D knit structure of Plectere."

The felt acts as a noise absorber, meaning that the resulting design can act as both a space divider and an acoustic panel. "When Plectere is hung in front of a glass wall with a spatial cavity, it absorbs both high and low-frequency sound waves," added Vonk.

The knitted curtains hang from modular tubing or from wooden poles, which are suspended from a ceiling and come in a variety of shapes.
Plectere Aline is attached to straight poles at the top and the bottom to create a flat panel. Plectere Curve is hung from curved pieces to create hanging tubes of the textile or more organic, wavy lengths. There are also versions with LED lights incorporated into the poles.
