For the art installation at Seventh Hill Pizza, we created a display made entirely out of pizza peels. This project was done as part of the larger restaurant branding and interiors project we were already engaged in.
Since the visual and gastronomic focal point of the restaurant is the wood fired oven made from stones specially imported from France, we wanted to create an art installation that would reference the pizza making process. We took a recognizable item, the pizza peel, and re-used it in an unexpected way. Taking 16 peels, we stained them in different shades to complement the interior and hung them together for an out of the box – and hunger inducing – display.
