We gave you a little peek at what Swedish design team Form Us With Love were planning to present at this year's Stockholm Furniture Fair a short while back, but here's a closer look at at one of the bolder pieces in their new collection.

'Hexagon' is a tessellated sound absorbent panel made from wood slivers, cement and water.

"We were looking into manufacturers of woodwool cement board in order to install it in our new studio. It’s an interesting material; simple, good looking and environmental friendly.

Besides, we needed to stop the echoing." say Petrus Palmér, John Löfgren, Jonas Pettersson of Form Us With Love.

And that’s pretty much how Form Us With Love found the 60-year-old firm Träullit, the only manufacturer of woodwool cement board in Sweden and a 20-man strong factory in the town of Österbymo – little more than a fleck on the map between Stockholm and Malmö.

So Form Us With Love initiated the project, and the result is a collection of hexagonal discs in a range of colours.

The process of making wood wool cement is quite simple: wood slivers are cut from logs, then mixed with water and cement and put in a mould to dry into shape.

The result is a material that is environmentally friendly, water resistant, moisture and sound absorbant.

Hexagon is now available for order, and the studio intend to expand the collection on an annual basis with new colours and new shapes.
