Algues are a multi-faceted screen system that provide consumers with endless creative possibilities. By joining individual, branch-like plastic modules together, Algues' form allows for multiple uses, degrees of transparency and a myriad of shapes and sizes. Despite being industrialized modules, Algues allow for countless individual solutions. Named one of Fortune Magazines 25 best products of 2004.
