Add a new dimension to your shade solution with Apo X

Discover Apo X, the first Kvadrat Shade roller blind textile featuring a pattern. Designed by Erwan Bouroullec, its refined patterns and balanced colour ways integrate smoothly with interior spaces, combining design and performance.

Rooted in architectural language, incorporating the structural rhythm of vertical and horizontal lines found in façades, windows and frameworks, translating these into a composed textile surface suitable for contemporary interior projects.

“That is the power of design, introducing elements that seamlessly integrate into a space and quietly contribute to its character.”

Erwan Bouroullec

Enriching interiors with refined expression

Apo X is available in two distinct line configurations, each exploring variations in density and rhythm. These patterns are carefully calibrated to introduce a sense of spatial order while remaining visually discreet. The construction demonstrates the precision of Kvadrat Shade weaving, and reflects a considered approach to both aesthetics and performance.

Erwan Bouroullec – “Window covering textiles are an essential part of the architectural language. The patterns I designed for Apo X are scaled so that the eye can appreciate the pattern from a distance. The idea was to match the scale of architecture and to create a pattern to help create darker zones, even on a bright background. These darker zones make it easier for the eye to see through the textile and enjoy the view beyond.”

 

Experience how Apo X combines design with functional excellence

Apo X is engineered to meet the practical needs of architectural environments. It supports daylight control, maintains outward visibility, and contributes to acoustic comfort. The metallised backing enhances solar reflection, reducing heat gain and improving visual comfort. Apo X is Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze, aligning with Kvadrat’s ongoing focus on responsible material solutions.

Exceptional for a semi-transparent roller blind textile, Apo X offers 40% sound absorption. It can reduce echoes in large spaces, creating a more peaceful environment that promotes productivity and well-being.

Apo X offers a balanced response to architectural and interior requirements – combining technical functionality with a restrained visual identity that complements a wide range of applications.

Create comfortable spaces with excellent glare control

Apo X offers excellent glare control (class 3-4), reducing harsh light and preventing diffuse light transmission. Most colours score the highest class, ensuring optimal visual comfort.

By effectively filtering daylight, Apo X creates a more balanced indoor environment, enhancing occupant well-being, eliminating eye strain and increasing productivity. At the same time, Apo X maintains a good visual contact with the outside. 

Cradle to Cradle certified excellence in high performance design

Apo X embodies our commitment to high performance design. As a Cradle to Cradle Bronze certified textile, it meets environmental and health standards and reflects our commitment to creating innovative solutions without compromising quality. Combining technical excellence with design, Apo X strengthens our portfolio of high performance textiles that prioritise superior performance and aesthetics.

Cradle to Cradle certification is an important benchmark in the window covering industry and it enables our blinds to contribute to points in globally recognised building sustainability standards such as LEED, BREEAM and DGNB. By supporting these frameworks, Apo X helps projects achieve their environmental performance goals and reinforces its value in building practice.

“I introduce vibrant, bold colours to the pattern, adding a touch of refined flavour to the space.”
