Interior designer’s nightmare: magnetic curtains

Florian Krautli’s magnetic curtains design is something that makes interior designers queasy. The idea behind these curtains is to allow the owner to shape the curtains however desired, thus providing the perfect amount of light, separation and such. Then again, the magnetic curtains would eliminate any kind of smooth, swooping lines that curtains are accustomed to and interior designers thrive off of.

Personally, I would like to see a magnetic shower curtain so not only could I sing in the shower, but I could also sculpt. We’re not quite at electronic curtains, but this is a definite start to taking a simple products like curtains and bringing them into the 21st century.
