Florian has designed a Magnetic Curtain. He claims it’s a curtain that you can shape to any structure. The way he made it was he embedded magnets that are in a diamond shaped grid within the curtains fabric, which would allow the consumer to shape the curtain in a number of ways.

The way one would operate the curtain is simply just by pushing it so the magnets attract together to close the curtain or by pulling the fabric so the magnets clip apart to open it.

The design is a white fabric that is transparent enough to let some light travel through it, which is quite nice when the curtain is folded for the reason that it creates some nice geometries.

Anastasia Andreieva is an accomplished Architectural Projects Editor at Arch2O, bringing a unique blend of linguistic expertise and design enthusiasm to the team. Born and raised in Ukraine, she holds a Master’s degree in Languages from Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv. Her deep passion for architecture and visual storytelling led her to transition from translation and editorial roles into the world of design media. With a keen eye for conceptual clarity and narrative structure, Anastasia curates and presents global architectural projects with precision and flair. She is particularly drawn to parametric and digital design, cultural context, and emerging voices in architecture. When I’m not analyzing the latest architectural trends, you’ll probably find me searching for hidden gems in cityscapes or appreciating the beauty of well-crafted spaces. After all, great design—like great connections—can be found in the most unexpected places. Speaking of connections, because architecture isn’t the only thing that brings people together.
