Wakuda is a Japanese restaurant by acclaimed chef Tetsuya Wakuda, who also helms the 2 Michelin-starred Waku Ghin. Located in the grand lobby of Marina Bay Sands, the restaurant opened in April 2022 and offers a refined omakase dining experience. To ensure optimal room acoustic treatment, Timberix™ microperforated V3.6/1.8/0.5 acoustic panels were installed to manage reverberation and enhance dining comfort.

Each microperforated panel features approximately 500,000 perforations per square metre, providing effective resonance absorption with the support of an acoustic substrate. The panels were finished in eucalyptus veneer with a matte lacquer, combining acoustic panel construction with premium interior design. For this bespoke soundproofing Singapore project, Timberix collaborated with Japanese artist Jun Inoue, who painted directly on the panels in Japan. The finished artwork, titled “The Ingredients That Arrived,” adds a cultural and architectural layer to the acoustic panels.

67 Pall Mall is an exclusive group of Members’ Clubs dedicated to fine wine. The Singapore Club opened in February 2022 at the Shaw Centre Penthouse, located in the heart of Orchard Road. Designed for refined social and dining experiences, the space required precise acoustic treatment to maintain a comfortable atmosphere.

Timberix™ microperforated V3.6/1.8/0.5 acoustic panels were installed to reduce reverberation from ambient chatter and improve overall soundproofing. Each panel was finished in dark walnut veneer with a matte lacquer, with adjacent veneer pieces laid side by side to create a continuous grain flow and a symmetrical, mirror-like visual effect. This acoustic panel construction blends architectural acoustic panels with premium interior design, supporting both room acoustic treatment and soundproofing Singapore standards.

Hathaway, derived from Old English meaning one who lives by a path across a heath, reflects its tranquil setting in Dempsey. Just like its name, the restaurant’s menu captures a sense of time and place through modern Asian cuisine.

To create a comfortable dining environment, the pillars and beams were clad in 1-inch Fabrix™ acoustic panels. The acoustic substrate within the panels reduces echoes and supports room acoustic treatment in the restaurant. A newly developed Fabrix™ profile—SL 27S (Side Load, 27mm Height, Square Profile)—was used to construct curved acoustic panels, seamlessly matching the rounded wall cabinets used for liquor and beverage display. This project combines acoustic panel construction with architectural acoustic panels in a refined hospitality setting.
