In the Thread: Do curved corners help???

Post Subject: So curves do make things betterPosted by fulcrum on: 9/23/2010

Thanks for all the comments. Seems like everyone is pretty much agreed that curves improve things but large radius curves are better than small. We have made curved panels with a radius from 4 inches to 35 feet. I attached a pic of one of our more 'normal' jobs. This was part of a 250' long curved wall that ultimately ended up as part of the Please Touch! museum in Philly. Sorry to whoever it was that thought this was too commercial - I thought my comment about being tone deaf in the first post would have clued you in that I wasn't doing this for my own listening pleasure! We are a tiny company that has a process for making very lightweight curved panels. For the most part we produce for museum manufacturers when they want to make cool, unusual exhibits. When we made the drywall corners for a local architect we had a ton of people ask about it for improving acoustics. I was just trying to find a way to understand the issues.
