Sound in Motion: Introducing Ecoustic® Swell
Not every surface needs to make a statement. Some of the most compelling interiors are shaped by the quieter details, a wall that catches light at a certain angle, a texture that gives a room its rhythm without demanding attention. Ecoustic® Swell is exactly that kind of surface.
Designed by Instyle, Ecoustic® Swell is an embossed acoustic wall panel defined by gentle, wavelike corrugations that move across a surface with the ease of something natural. The profile is subtle but distinct, enough to introduce depth and dimension to flat planes, enough to shift the visual weight of a room without overwhelming it.
A Surface That Works with Light
The design logic behind Swell is elegantly simple: an undulating embossed contour that plays with light and shadow as it travels across the wall. At any given moment, the surface reads differently depending on the angle of the light and the position of the viewer, creating a quiet sense of movement and life that static surfaces simply can’t replicate.
It’s a product that rewards proximity. From across the room, Swell reads as refined texture. Up close, the sculpted relief becomes more apparent, a careful, considered detail that elevates the surface beyond the ordinary.
27 Colorways. One Cohesive Collection.
Swell is offered in a curated palette of 27 colorways spanning the full range of specification needs.
From warm neutrals like Almond, Buff, and Truffle to deeper, more atmospheric options like Cave, Night, and Galaxy, the palette is designed to integrate naturally across a wide range of commercial interior environments. For specifiers looking for something less expected, colors like Ruby, Kiln, and Wild bring energy and personality without sacrificing sophistication.
Performance Built In
Ecoustic® Swell achieves NRC ratings ranging from 0.25 (direct fix) to 0.65 (with a 1.97″ airgap), with performance increasing meaningfully as installation depth increases. Each panel measures 39.4″ × 108.3″ × 0.43″, making it well-suited to large-scale wall applications where continuity and coverage matter. Panels achieve a Class A flammability rating per ASTM E84.

Designed for the Way Interiors Feel
Beyond the certifications and the specs, Swell is a product that simply makes spaces feel better, acoustically and visually. Its sculpted surface absorbs sound while lending warmth and tactility to walls that might otherwise go unnoticed. It works as a feature wall, a backdrop, and as a quiet complement to more expressive finishes.
