This might work as a diffusor, although it may have it's own resonant character.

Great catch.  Looks like it can roll up and/or be easily moved too.

Better than a flat wall but not a diffuser.  PROPER diffusion scatters waves in space and in time.  That will scatter in space, but not randomly and will cause comb filtering.

You're right Bryan, but it would go very well aesthetically in my house (with our bamboo floors).

I realize this is not a true diffusor, but I posted it after reading several articles about curved panel diffusors.

Geometric shapes (like half circles) work reasonably well to scatter sound and are often used in home theaters. Depends on what you are trying to achieve!
