Flap — Rafa Ortega
Flap — Rafa Ortega
Flap challenges the idea of a static space. Designed by Rafa Ortega, it incorporates 360° rotating, two-tone slats that allow for modifications to color, perception, and spatial configuration. Acoustics become a dynamic surface, capable of adapting to use, time, and the project’s intent. This system enables the creation of multifunctional spaces with diverse aesthetics.
Its system of movable slats allows for real-time modification of the ceiling’s visual appearance, adapting color, depth, and configuration to the project’s needs. This transformative ability turns the ceiling into an active element capable of creating different atmospheres within the same space.

Flap improves acoustic performance through sound-absorbing surfaces that reduce reverberation and increase acoustic comfort. Furthermore, its design allows for the quick and efficient concealment of installations and the transformation of industrial ceilings into clean, architectural compositions.
The combination of movement, color and functionality makes Flap a particularly effective solution for offices, hospitality and experiential spaces where flexibility, identity and well-being are an essential part of contemporary design.
