Feltouch products: Ripple, Bowl
Acoustic Solutions: Lighting
Times Studio Office combines contemporary workplace design with acoustic lighting solutions that improve comfort, productivity, and visual identity. Feltouch integrated Bowl and Ripple acoustic pendant lighting throughout the lounge, waiting, and bar areas to create inviting spaces for employees and visitors.
Bowl acoustic pendant lighting defines the waiting and lounge areas with soft, balanced illumination while helping reduce reverberation and improve acoustic comfort. Its sculptural form adds a distinctive architectural element and creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Meanwhile, Ripple acoustic pendant lighting complements the social spaces and bar areas with the same acoustic and visual performance. Both lighting collections were produced in Mandarin, a custom color selected to match Times Studio's corporate brand identity. As a result, the lighting solutions establish a consistent design language throughout the office.
Manufactured from PET felt containing 50% recycled material, both Bowl and Ripple combine acoustic performance with high-quality illumination. Together, they reduce sound reflections, improve user comfort, and create pleasant environments for relaxation, informal meetings, and everyday interaction. The acoustic lighting solutions enhance both the atmosphere and the perception of the interior while supporting sustainable workplace design.

Acoustic Solutions: Wall Panel, Hanging, Lighting, Cladding, Ceiling
Turkish Airlines selected Feltouch ceiling, wall, lighting, and space divider solutions for its Operations Center at Istanbul Airport to improve acoustic comfort in open offices, dining areas, and social spaces. The interior follows the airline's corporate style while combining sound control, lighting, and modern design. The three-storey operations center supports flight operations 24 hours a day, seven days a week. As a result, Feltouch products create quieter and more comfortable spaces for daily work, teamwork, dining, and relaxation.
In the open office, Cracker Edge acoustic wall panels reduce sound reflections and make conversations clearer. Plate acoustic wall panels improve the wall niches while helping control sound. Above the workstations, Cracker Cloud Lighting combines sound absorption with built-in lighting. Therefore, employees enjoy balanced lighting and lower background noise throughout the day. In addition, Rain Mesh panels separate workstations from walkways without blocking natural light or visibility. This solution creates sound separation while keeping the office open and connected. As a result, employees can focus on their daily work with fewer interruptions.
In the cafeteria, Flat Cloud ceiling panels reduce echoes caused by conversations and dining activities. At the same time, Forest Mesh panels divide the seating areas and help reduce sound between different zones. Because of this, employees enjoy quieter spaces for meals and informal conversations. The cafeteria also stays bright, open, and welcoming.
Straight Baffle and Custom Baffle systems improve sound control beneath the restaurant's open ceiling. The suspended baffles absorb sound, reduce echoes, and lower background noise across the space. As a result, employees and visitors enjoy meals and conversations in greater comfort, even during busy hours. In addition, the ceiling systems keep the restaurant open while adding a clean and modern look.
Employee social spaces also feature custom Feltouch products. A custom Plate installation creates an aircraft engine design that reflects the Turkish Airlines brand. In addition, baffles in different colours add movement and visual interest while improving acoustic comfort. Therefore, these spaces support employee comfort and strengthen the overall interior design.
Feltouch manufactures these products from PET felt containing 50% recycled material. The panels contain no chemical binders and produce low VOC emissions. Therefore, they support healthier indoor spaces and sustainable building projects. PET felt is durable, easy to clean, and easy to maintain. It also provides reliable acoustic performance for many years. Because of these qualities, the products are ideal for busy workplaces such as airport operations centers.

In addition, its green colors reflect ISTAC's focus on the environment and create a memorable first impression.
The project also supports Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality's vision of zero waste and greener cities. The municipality built Turkey's first and Europe's largest Waste-to-Energy Facility to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill. At the same time, the project helps solve the challenges of a growing population, rising waste, higher energy costs, and limited landfill space. Every day, the facility processes 3,000 tons of waste and produces 85 MWh of electricity. It serves about 1.4 million people and saves nearly 8 million kilometers of transportation every year. As a result, the project helps protect Istanbul's natural environment, improves daily life, and lowers the city's carbon footprint.
The entrance hall reflects this vision through the Feltouch Manta Acoustic Wall Panel. Feltouch makes the panels from PET felt containing 50% recycled material. In this project alone, about 800 recycled 0.5-liter PET bottles became part of the Manta wall. The panels contain no chemical binders and produce low VOC emissions. Therefore, they help create healthier indoor spaces while providing reliable acoustic comfort.
Feltouch also goes beyond using recycled PET. Since 2020, the company has continued its Zero Burn journey by reusing its own production waste and leftover materials. This program supports zero-waste production and helps reduce carbon emissions. Moreover, it shows Feltouch's long-term commitment to responsible manufacturing and sustainable design.
Overall, the ISTAC project shows how the Manta Acoustic Wall Panel brings together acoustic comfort, recycled materials, and modern design. The installation creates a welcoming entrance, improves sound quality, and supports a better indoor environment. At the same time, it reflects the shared environmental goals of ISTAC and Feltouch through recycled PET, the reuse of 800 plastic bottles, the Zero Burn initiative, and one of Europe's leading waste-to-energy projects.
