Mixing glass and steel with natural fibers, Architect Brunete Fraccaroli created an unusual Japanese restaurant in the heart of São Paulo. The main concern of the client was to not loose the orient al style, while achieving a unique and original space.
While Brunete Fraccaroli makes use of many materials in her projects, her favorite material is Vanceva® colored laminated glass. “Right now Solutia’s products represent a great solution,” said Fraccaroli. “Gl ass is a material with many functions. We can use to separate the environments, without losing the interactivity and gaining in space. It is a lightweight material, noble and has characteristics of modernity.”
All of the windows in the project were made using Vanceva color interlayer for laminated gl ass, as well as the partitions and balcony railing. The lighting fixtures were custom designed for the project by the architect. To create a cosmopolitan atmosphere, the use of pink and orange in translucent glass, produced an unusual effect of dynamic illumination.
