Acoustic Enhancement of Restaurant Salvi al Flaminio

Project Overview

"Salvi al Flaminio," a renowned restaurant in Rome, faced persistent reverberation issues in its main dining room. This not only disrupted diners’ conversations but also detracted from the sophisticated ambience the owner sought to maintain. They required an acoustic solution that would address the challenges while complementing the stylish interior design.

Challenge

The key challenges included:

• Managing the excessive reverberation that impacted conversation clarity.
• Ensuring the acoustic solution harmonised with the restaurant's contemporary aesthetic.
• Installing the panels discreetly to avoid interfering with the restaurant's operational hours or visual appeal.

Scope of Work

• Assessing the acoustic environment and identifying the primary sources of reverberation.
• Proposing a customised solution tailored to the dimensions and colour scheme of the dining space.
• Completion of the installation with minimal disruption to the restaurant’s operations.

Solution

DECIBEL designed and implemented an acoustic treatment plan featuring Echo Cloud Panels mounted on the ceiling. These sound-absorbing panels were customised in size (130 x 65 x 5 cm) and colour to blend seamlessly into the restaurant's interior. The strategic placement of these panels reduced reverberation levels significantly, ensuring diners could enjoy a comfortable and intimate dining experience.
The Echo Cloud Panels’ sleek and unobtrusive design complemented the restaurant’s décor, maintaining its elegant atmosphere while achieving optimal acoustic performance.

Importance of Acoustics in Dining Spaces
