Ennis is the latest addition to Offecct's Soundwave collection, a range of 16 acoustic panels designed to reduce background noise and echoes in a room.
All 16 were created by different designers. The first panel was designed by Helsinki-based designer Teppo Asikainen in 1999, while other contributors include Catalan designer Mario Ruiz and Danish architecture firm 3XN.

The launch of Ennis coincides with the 1...
