Manufacturer Spotlight: Arktura



Where Imagination Meets Engineering — And Ceilings Speak
Here's another great company we discovered at NeoCon2025
There are manufacturers…
And then there’s Arktura — where possibility is the product.
At Tunnel, we’re honored to be able to work with hundreds of amazing companies across categories. But every once in a while, we find a partner who doesn’t just fit into a project — they expand what’s possible inside of it.
That’s what Arktura does.
They turn ceilings into canvases.
Walls into sculptures.
Acoustic solutions into sensory experiences.
And they do it all with precision, beauty, and performance in mind.
Designed for Visionaries — Built for the Real World
Arktura isn’t just for architects. It’s for architectural thinkers — the visionaries, the spatial strategists, the firms who don’t just want to finish a project, but make a statement.
Whether you’re working on a university performing arts center, a creative office campus, or a civic project meant to inspire community — Arktura helps you express intention through geometry, light, and form.
And unlike many vendors, they’re not afraid of complexity.
They invite it.
Their solutions are modular, scalable, and fully customizable — built on a platform of digital fabrication, advanced modeling tools, and real-time design support that lets ideas evolve in motion.
If you’ve ever heard the phrase “design without compromise,” Arktura is what it looks like when that’s real.

“I used to get caught up in what was new. Now I focus on what I’ll still love five years from now — and that’s changed everything.”
The Power of Parametrics: When Form Serves Both Function and Feeling
What Arktura does especially well is combine parametric design with real-world performance — acoustics, airflow, lighting integration, and sustainability — without ever losing the visual poetry.
Want to dampen noise in a high-traffic lobby without losing ceiling height?
→ Their SoftGrid® system turns sound absorption into sculpture.Looking to wrap a corridor wall with a custom gradient that guides movement?
→ Their Atmosphera® and SoundStar® systems turn rhythm into architecture.Need to create a wow moment in a civic, hospitality, or transit environment?
→ Their Vapor® panels and Delta Drop® ceilings are ready to deliver drama — with technical documentation to back it all up.
It’s not just aesthetics.
It’s storytelling with structure.
A Deep Commitment to Performance and Sustainability
Arktura understands that beauty must be backed by function.
That’s why their systems integrate PET felt made from recycled plastic, offering high acoustic performance with a sustainability story your clients will love.
Their team provides full reverberation calculations, CAD/BIM assets, and acoustic testing data to support everything from WELL Building certification to LEED-compliant documentation.
In other words — they make it easy for designers to do what they do best, while helping owners and operators meet their performance and compliance goals.

From System to Statement: What Happens When You Choose Arktura
At the end of the day, Arktura isn’t just about ceilings or panels or wall systems — it’s about what happens because of them.
It's about creating a space that makes people pause.
That changes how sound moves.
That shifts how people feel when they enter.
When designers and architecture firms partner with Arktura, they’re not just choosing a manufacturer — they’re choosing a platform for creativity, backed by technical excellence and a spirit of collaboration.
And when you partner with Tunnel, you get a team that knows how to bring those possibilities to life — from concept to coordination to installation.
