Archi+ Argilla by Novacolor adorns the interiors of the new Japanese restaurant in Milan, transforming it into a space where sustainability and design coexist in harmony, thanks to the creative vision of Nick Maltese and Fede Pagetti.
In the dynamic heart of Milan, just steps away from the bustling Corso Buenos Aires, a new chapter in fine Japanese cuisine unfolds. This is Sato Sushi Experience, a restaurant that already stands out for its perfect balance between Japanese tradition and aesthetic innovation. The interiors, designed by Nick Maltese Studio, tell a story of refined materials, ethereal atmospheres, and a design that seamlessly merges functionality and beauty. Enhancing the space and contributing to a welcoming and meditative ambiance is Archi+ Argilla, the decorative finish by Novacolor, chosen for its strong aesthetic impact and sustainable essence.
The choice of Archi+ Argilla: the value of natural materials
A key feature of the walls at Sato Sushi Experience, Archi+ Argilla is an innovative mineral wall coating that combines natural clay, aerial lime, and selected aggregates to ensure maximum workability and unparalleled aesthetic performance. This finish from the Archi+ line by Novacolor celebrates the connection between tradition and innovation, giving the interiors a unique and sustainable character.
“Archi+ Argilla integrates perfectly into our design vision,” explain Nick Maltese and Fede Pagetti, “where natural materials and contemporary design meet to create spaces capable of conveying calm, balance, and authenticity.”
A design that enhances the sensory experience
The Archi+ Argilla finish not only enriches the environment aesthetically but also contributes to an immersive sensory experience. Thanks to its natural formulation, it ensures “vibrant” walls that enhance the visual and tactile perception of spaces, in line with the principles of Feng Shui.
“We wanted to create a place capable of transporting diners to a parallel universe,” explain the designers. “The combination of materials such as cherry wood, marble, and Archi+ Argilla has made it possible to craft an environment where every detail invites reflection and appreciation of the present moment.”
Sato Sushi Experience: a new landmark in Milan
With its elegant design and cutting-edge decorative solutions by Novacolor, Sato Sushi Experience is not only a place of haute Japanese cuisine but also a must-visit destination for interior design enthusiasts. This project is yet another testament to Nick Maltese Studio’s ability to transform spaces into works of art and to Novacolor’s commitment to offering decorative solutions that blend sustainability, innovation, and beauty.
