A recent breakthrough in sound-absorbing draperies came from EMPA, a lab in Switzerland, and Swiss textile designer Annette Douglas. They are gauzy, allowing in some natural light, but made of a modified polyester designed to absorb sound. They come in three different designs (Carmen, Formoza and Marmara) that range from $72 to $123 per linear yard, and are available through U.S. distributor Wolf Gordon.
