Silenzio
Application
Model of application: restaurant
Location analysis: the quality of a restaurant is a combination
of different factors: quality of food, service and environment
and a good quality of speech combined with acoustic comfort.
Solution: the Silenzio suspensions are the perfect
solution because they are simple shapes which enrich the
spaces thanks to the high quality of the textiles; they diffuse
a comfortable light and provide high levels of acoustic
absorption.
Room data:
L = 15 m
W= 7 m
H= 5,5 m
Different height
from 2,5 m to 2,9 m
Before: time of reverberation* 3,16 s
After: (with Silenzio) time of reverberation 1,55 s
Decrease of reverberation: about 51%**
Measuring reverberation time allows to calculate total sound
absorption. Reverberation time varies according to the fre-
quency. If reverberation time is too long, the space can have
echoes and rumbles.
The data is always approximate: the software doesn’t take
in consideration the position of the speaker and the position
of absorbent surfaces.
