In the bustling city of London, where noise seems to be an ever-present companion, a unique and innovative solution has emerged from the depths of Canadian waters. Seaweed, once thought of as merely an oceanic plant, has now become a powerful tool in combating the deafening sounds that plague workshops and public buildings. Dubbed as "Cabots Quilt" this extraordinary creation is meticulously crafted by skilled women workers seen in this print from 26th February 1926. Their hands delicately weave together layers of seaweed, forming a soundproof lining for one of London's new structures. The process itself is both fascinating and awe-inspiring.
