The Half Round, Quarter Round, and Linear baffle—which are available at custom heights—allow designers to craft unique layouts that bring depth and dimension to any space. Whether spanning large, open areas; hovering strategically above furniture to encourage collaboration; or positioned to create defined, intimate zones, these panels help dampen sound and add visual interest overhead. Choose from one of twelve standard configurations or create a custom layout tailored to meet the specific needs of any environment.
Nest Baffle and its standard configurations were designed by Boston-based designer Kelly Harris Smith. Kelly Harris Smith has been designing products for FilzFelt since its founding in 2008. Her products have ranged from colorful space dividers to textile-inspired wall patterns and tiles

“Wool felt inherently softens environments, and with the Nest Baffle, I want to amplify that effect. They not only add warmth through material and texture but also exist to absorb sound, creating a more inviting and tranquil atmosphere. My goal is for these baffles to provide a sense of comfort and calm in any setting.” —Kelly Harris Smith, designer of Nest Baffle
