Tloor-to-Ceiling1 Carpet
Used in New York Eateries
Carpet on the wall?
Don't laugh. There appears
to be a trend toward carpeting
walls "floor- to - ceiling," at
least as far as a number of
savvy restaurant and theatre
operators in Mannaitan are
concerned.
In the past few years a
series of new restaurants and
redecorated theatres in New
tapestry designs, developed
from his efforts. Bullfight
scenes, landscapes and city
scapes such as the Taj Mahal
and Plaza San Marco of Ven
ire were soon going up on

chele found It could be done

York have been featuring lush j ordinary vacuum cleaner that
carpet on the walls. For one ! removes the chalk marks as
restaurant designer, this fea
ture has become a trademark.
Jack Fieldman has designed
the interiors for scores of
new dining places in the New
York area from "hamburger
joints" to exclusive bistros,
and the chances are that a
visitor will find a carpeted
wall.
"Cheaper To Install"
"Carpet on the wall has all
kinds of advantages," Field-
man holds, "and they are
not limited to the decorative
aspect either. Carpet is one
of the best acoustical materi
als you can find to swallow
up the noise which diners find
so disturbing. It's easier to
put up than wallpaper or wood
paneling, and in many cases,
it's even cheaper."
The carpet-on-wall idea has
also taken hold as a distinc
tive conversation piece in
Fieldman-designed eateries. At
one gourmet palace In mid
town Manhattan, the "Bon
Vivant," the maitre d' has
utilized the carpet as a new
material for applying his na
tive artist talents.
Placing his hand on the rich
looking, burgundy colored
carpet one day, headwaiter
Michele Perris discovered he
could create a "picture" by
tracing his finger through the
pile. He decided to experiment
further, and soon he gradu
ated to pastel chalks to color
in the outline created by his
finger tracing.
Tapestry Effect
The results were astounding
to Perris, his boss and the
"Bon Vivant" customers. Col
orful and elegant "wall-paintings"
looking very much like
easily as it would dust.
As a result, the carpel pic
tures have become the major
conversation piece at the Bon
Vivant. Perris changes the
picture , which takes about
two hours to complete, two
or three times a week or
whenever the inspiration hits
him. The first question pa
trons ask when they come in
is "What's the picture today,
Michele?"
Perris finds his new hobby
offers him a great deal of
creative pleasure, and he has
received numerous requests
from his art-loving patrons
to "paint" a picture for them
or. the C9rn they plan to
put up on the walls in their
homes.
By the way, for his restau-1
rant interiors Fieldman does
use carpet in the old conven
tional way-on the floor. "Why
for any decent restaurant, it's
mandatory!" he assert" "It re- i
moves the hard, institutional i
look so often found in dining
places. It's quieter, and It's ;
easier to keep clean than hard
floors. Carpet makes people .
feel more relaxed and com
fortable when they're eating."
In Fieldman's opinion, "Half j
the ulcers in the world are
caused not by bad food, but
by bad decor." . j

curtains, will still most sound.
Also, the pleasure of lav'
Ing your bare feet on a soft,
warm rug when awakening,
as opposed to a hard, cold
floor, cannot be equalled.

tical. A rug that will give ex
