A ceiling system comprising:
- a plurality of ceiling tiles comprising:
- a felt backer panel comprising:
- a top surface;
- a bottom surface opposite the top surface;
- a first side edge extending from the bottom surface to the top surface;
- and
- a second side edge extending from the bottom surface to the top surface, the second side edge opposite the first side edge;
- a plurality of felt slats mounted to the felt backer panel, each of the plurality of felt slats extending along the bottom surface of the felt backer panel from the first side edge of the felt backer panel to the second side edge of the felt backer panel, the plurality of felt slats extending substantially parallel to one another;
- and
- a ceiling hanger system comprising a plurality of ceiling hangers arranged in a rectilinear grid defining a plurality of grid openings and lying within a drop ceiling plane;
- and
- the plurality of ceiling tiles mounted to the ceiling hanger system so that for each of the plurality of ceiling tiles:
- (1) the felt backer panel is oriented parallel to the drop ceiling plane and encloses at least one of the plurality of grid openings;
- and (2) the felt backer panel is located below the drop ceiling plane and at least partially conceals bottom surfaces of the plurality of ceiling hangers.
