About Puzzle Polyurethaan Wandtegel

De Puzzeltegel heeft een pure en gestileerde vorm en een eigentijdse uitstraling. Dankzij de kenmerken van 3D-ontwerp kan de tegel op 4 manieren worden geplaatst, wat een spectrum aan mogelijkheden biedt. Het kan vrij worden gecombineerd om een ​​verscheidenheid aan abstracte, geometrische patronen te creëren die spelen met het veranderende licht. De tegels kunnen als accent in de ruimte worden geplaatst of het gehele wandoppervlak bedekken. Het schilderen van sommige tegels in verschillende kleuren kan de composities diversifiëren. De Puzzle-tegels zijn geschikt voor een scala aan interieurs: utiliteits-, kantoor- of thuisruimtes.

Production Technology
Puzzle is manufactured as Puzzle Arstyl (R) under the brand NOËL and MARQUET by the company NMC, based in Belgium. The product is made from Polyurethane foam , which is covered by final primer to make the models ready to be painted in whatever color the user prefers, before installation. The finished product is impact-resistant, durable, lightweight and easy to install.
Design Challenge
The creative challenge and fascination during the design development process was to create one single element which can provide many options of usage. As contemporary design loves 3D elements, another important point for the final product was to avoid any similarity to existing ones.
Research
In the process of research several parameters were adjusted concerning the sizes of the tile in order to find the suitable dimensions, which will best fit walls in different spaces and interiors. The thickness of the tile - height of the relief, was adjusted as well to find out the appropriate one for the visual conception. Project was developed by 3D modeling and experimental gypsum models.
Inspiration
Puzzle was inspired by the pure geometric forms of truncated pyramid for its shape and by probability theory for the almost countless compositions possible.
Project Duration
The project started as an individual project from April to the end of July 2020 in Sofia, Bulgaria and was developed for production by NMC's engineering from July 2020 to December 2020 in Raeren, Belgium.
Operation Flow
Puzzle lets all designers and architects apply their creativity fully due to its versatility. The designers can make projects with different wall textures and surfaces by playing with the positions of the product and combination between several tiles. Puzzle can be used both across a complete wall, as well as to create a stand-alone panel focal point for the interior space. Puzzle can be installed very easily just by gluing to the walls with adhesives.
