The Art of Sound

Clipboarding this article; I think it'd be neat to do something similar with a Marimekko print. From the dwell blog:

Too often, acoustics gets overlooked when planning a living space. Rather than settling for quick and easy boxed solutions, or maxing credit cards out on high-priced systems, you can improve your room's sound simply by adding wall coverings. 

Sound bounces off hard surfaces, such as wood, metal and tile, creating a din. Upholstery, canvases, pillows and acoustic tiles absorb sound, helping you to better hear its nuances. Herman Miller makes acoustic panels (above) in modern prints for sleek environments, and MyTheater offers solid colors in larger sizes that can do double duty as artwork.
