Noise, echo, annoyance: the noise pollution is part of the everyday routine, it’s a real problem that involve also the interior design field, always looking for new useful materials but, at the same time, beautiful and customize, as the brand-new system WallPepper® Acoustic, used by Costa Group for the re-design of the Di Gennaro pizza restaurant in Duomo, Milan.
Then, the acoustic issue is even more important where we talk about public space, with medium or high turnout of people. Caos, reverberate, deafening sounds could ruin the relax time and the comfort of the guests, and with them the business image.
From this perspective, the pizzeria Di Gennaro - a reference point in Milan born in 1934 it’s considerate one of the historical restaurant of the city – has committed to Costa Group (leader company in the shop furnishing field) the re-design of its spaces.
The restyling idea is to create a fresh, modern and especially Milanese atmosphere, the choice to use the WallPepper® material turned out to be the natural one.
The walls in the Pizzeria di Gennaro, among the first realization in Italy, are entirely customized with WallPepeper® Acoustic. This new special material allows to enhance the spaces in an extraordinary way, giving a real benefit. The noise is there but is not bothersome, the perfect solution to have a pleasant dinner in a colorful and creative space, in the name of good food.
