# Decorative Folding Screen

> A virtual environment that renders material more accurately than a studio shoot.

- Type: Digital
- Year: 2025
- Status: Completed
- Client: material, naidis!
- Contribution: Editorial Art Direction, CGI Set Design, Visual Editing

Eight decorative folding screens from local brands and vintage shops: solid ash and walnut with cotton canvas, MDF with matte enamel, lacquered oak, stainless steel with carpet inserts, chinoiserie with printed gesso and hand-painted detail.

To bring them together in a single lookbook, a virtual showroom was built: an industrial workshop with concrete floor and walls, heavy structural beams at ceiling height, and large windows with natural daylight. Daylight as a deliberate choice — it does not distort the perception of colour and texture the way artificial warm lighting does. The material and finish of each folding screen read with maximum accuracy.

The environment's anchor is heavy curtains in dark navy velvet with a geometric linear pattern. The tactile contrast between rough concrete and velour creates a tension against which the wooden and textile surfaces of the dividers read warmer and more textured. Each screen received its own frame within this setting.

The showroom was produced digitally: a CGI environment with integration of original photography from the brands, without physical delivery of any object. The space is designed as a permanent infrastructure — with interchangeable curtains and backgrounds for each new edition.
