Designed by Dutch designer, Nienke Sybrandy, the ASCII Code Curtains is a very interesting approach to curtains design that was inspired by the sheer amount of information going through today’s networks. ASCII-Code curtains visualize the information network in a tree, using the very codes that represent text in computers, communications equipment, and other devices that work with text. Gotta love design that is simultaneously geeky and cool.

Designed by Hiroshi Tsunoda, ‘Joyn’ is a hexagon curtain / wall which can be used to divide a room or funk up a window. The structure is made up of hexagons which can be connected together. There is no need for a standing structure; it’s connected and swiftly hung up, on a steel cable using the accompanying attachment pieces, or directly to the wall using a number of fixation methods. Joyn can be put together in countless aesthetic and functional ways. - Via - Yankodesign

This curtain is something quite interesting. I never saw a curtain like this before. A playful curtain, which feeds the imagination on an event that might be going on behind. - Via

Curtain Wall House was made by Japanase architect Shigeru Ban to interpret this term literally, poetically employing an actual curtain as facade wall. The house is situated on an constricted intersection in itabashi-ku, tokyo, consists of an elegantly spare two-floor block of open living spaces sandwiched between a large, overhanging triangular roof and deck that extend almost to the curb line. Behind the curtain, a set of sliding glass wall panels works with the curtain to create a completely insulated and private interior. The curtain as architectural element refers back to traditional Japanese design elements such as shoji and sudare screens, and fusuma doors common within the traditional Japanese house. Personally I see this project as an artistic project, something made for a picture or to attract press attention. The concept is interesting, but without any use, and that withe curtain will be grey, to black in a few days cause of pollution, especially in a city like Tokyo.
