Soft Gem Panels on Partition Door

Soft Gem Panels on Partition Door

Fproduct as Design & Manufacture

How do you partition a space but maintain continuity? Provide a measure of privacy while preserving the airy feel of an open plan? Contain sound but enhance light? Jun Aizaki of Creme Design Studio found the solution to these seeming paradoxes through the use of Fproduct's Soft Gem panels for the Pod Restaurant in Philadelphia. A sliding door made from these translucent panels separates diners in the rear of the restaurant from the boisterous bar and main seating area in the front. In the main room, the cozy booths were cushioned with Fproduct's Soft Pad cushions, complementing the both the jewel-tones of the Soft Gem panels and the Verner Panton chairs used throughout. Design by Fabrice Covelli and Creme Design ▪ Sliding door/partition: Soft Gem panels (urethane rubber, urethane gel) mounted in aluminum frame ▪ Soft Pad booth cushions (urethane rubber, urethane gel) 15" x 15.75" x 0.75" (38 x 40 x 2 cm)
