Wakuda is a Japanese restaurant by chef Tetsuya Wakuda who owns 2 Stars Michelin restaurant Waku Ghin. The restaurant opened its doors in the grand lobby of the iconic Marina Bay Sands Hotel in April 2022. Timberix™ microperforated V3.6/1.8/0.5 acoustic panels were installed to manage reverberations for a comfortable Japanese omakase dining experience.

These microperforated panels have approximately 500,000 perforations per square metre. They attenuate sound through resonance absorption and the acoustic substrate behind the panels. The panels were finished in eucalyptus veneer with a matte lacquer application.

As a bespoke project, Timberix collaborated with Japanese artist Jun Inoue to have his artwork painted on the acoustic panels. The panels were flown to Japan to be painted before installing them in the restaurant. The original artwork on the Timberix panels is titled “The Ingredients That Arrived”.

The 67 Pall Mall Group is a collection of Members’ Clubs devoted to fine wine. The Singapore Club opened its doors in Shaw Centre Penthouse which is located in the heart of Orchard Road in February 2022.

Timberix™ microperforated V3.6/1.8/0.5 acoustic panels were chosen to reduce chatter reverberations and create a comfortable dining experience. 

The surface was finished in dark walnut veneer with a matte lacquer application. The adjacent pieces of veneer are pieced side by side so that the grain in each piece flows seamlessly into the next. This creates a mirror image effect that is both beautiful and symmetrical.

Hathaway in old English means someone who lives by a path across a heath, which in some way describes their location at Dempsey. Like the name, their menu seeks to capture the context of our time and place through the lens of modern asian cuisine.

The pillars and beams of the restaurant are cladded with 1-inch Fabrix. The acoustical substrate reduces echoes in the restaurant to make dining a more comfortable experience.

A new type of Fabrix profile, SL 27S – Side Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile, was used to build the curved panels to match the round wall-cabinets for placing the liquor and beverages.
