Private space, even with other people around? Not only talk about sustainability, but live it? Put new creative ideas into practice yourself in no time? The solution is the ‘Buzzispace’!

With the material ‘Buzzi felt’, a maximal sound insulation is achieved and simultaneously recycling ideas implemented, for it is 100 per cent made of used PET-bottles. The ‘Buzzi felt’ thus unites two topical subjects: ecological awareness in the form of recycling, and combating noise pollution, the latter of which affects all of us daily, especially in an urban environment.

As part of the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK, the Hans Taus furniture shop will be showing possibilities of how low-noise islands of private space can be created – at home and at work. What ‘Buzzi felt’ can do will be demonstrated with two rooms: one effectively equipped with sound insulation, the other not. Hear the difference!
