Case Study

Unisa Canteen Pretoria

The 40-year-old kitchens and restaurants of three UNISA Muckleneuk Campus canteens were renovated.

“Solo” Acoustic absorptive panels from Saint-Gobain Ecophon, were suspended for a lighter look and a more quiet space, against black concrete ceilings, whilst an improved colour scheme and more adequate lighting gave a fresh feel to the three spaces.

At the server areas of two of the restaurants, the new concept was to incorporate cooking in the     front-of-house, and not just serving of food prepared out of sight, brought out from behind closed doors in the kitchens.

Ecophon Solo™ is a free hanging unit offering high level design possibilities. Three different suspension systems offer opportunities to create several layers and angles.

Suitable when the room volume should be maintained or when it’s not possible to install a wall-to-wall ceiling.
