Ceiling
Ceiling Cloud Felt brings soft sound absorption to ceilings, helping restaurants, studios, and lobbies feel less echoey and more welcoming.
Ceiling Cloud Felt is a suspended felt module for ceilings. These clouds hang from a rail kit, softening the sound in open rooms with hard surfaces above. Both faces of the felt absorb noise, making them useful in busy restaurants, creative studios, hotel lobbies, or anywhere conversation and calm matter.
Clouds fit well where voices tend to bounce and linger. They help tame the sharp sound you get from concrete, glass, or timber ceilings without closing in the room. Most often, we see them over dining areas, open-plan offices, or above yoga and pilates spaces where a gentler background makes a big difference.
The main job of Ceiling Cloud Felt is to absorb sound from both below and above, cutting down echo and making speech clearer. Unlike direct-to-wall panels, clouds catch sound that would otherwise reflect downward and around the space. This is especially handy where hard floors and ceilings combine to make rooms noisy.
Felt is a non-woven textile, so the cut edges stay neat and do not fray. Wool felt absorbs moisture vapour in humid conditions, which can help keep the air in balance, but it needs a chance to dry out if the room stays closed for long. The soft finish also brings a warming effect visually, breaking up stark ceilings with calm colour and a gentle profile.
Clouds come in round or oblong modules, each designed to hang cleanly from the supplied rail kit. The choice depends on your ceiling size, fixing points, and the look you want. Oblong clouds can run along dining tables or workbenches, while rounds work well clustered over reception or waiting areas.
For colour, you can pick from our full felt range: Sage Field, Mist Paper, Ink Edge, Soft Leaf, Stone Wash, Cloud Pale, Forest Mute, Sand Quiet, Clay Mute or Teal Soft. We always recommend borrowing a felt swatch before making your final decision, as room lighting changes how colours read. Our Woodstock studio and showroom bays in Joburg, Century City, Umhlanga, Bellville, Pretoria and the Waterfront have samples to compare in person.
Ceiling Cloud Felt is hung on a rail kit, which is simple to fit to most sound ceilings. We recommend letting our team handle the installation, especially for commercial or public buildings where ceiling services and fire codes may apply. The clouds need enough clearance from sprinklers, lights and vents, and must be fixed to a ceiling that can safely support their weight.
Once installed, felt clouds are low maintenance. Dust them with a soft brush or vacuum lightly to keep them fresh, especially in high-traffic spaces like Joburg restaurants or Cape Town studios where dust and salt air can settle over time. In humid areas, give the room some air flow to let wool felt dry out fully between busy spells.
