Lighting advice Hotel & Catering industry
In Europe, high numbers of people use their evenings and weekends to spend time at cafes and restaurants to socialize and relax. On holiday, many stay at hotels to rest. In hotel & catering environments, it is important to determine beforehand what the aim of the lighting and its effect on the ambiance should be. Is it important that visitors stay for a long time? Or would it be better if people eat and drink rapidly, then hurry to the exit so new guests can take their seats. Each concept is different. Lighting directly affects the degree of hospitality and client satisfaction. A relaxed atmosphere is created in a different way than a luxurious or modern ambiance. Some corners ask for the expression of various different ambiances. A hotel lobby needs a different ambiance than a hotel room or a dining room in a restaurant. Something can be said about each application, and therefore lighting advice in this kind of environments initially considers the aimed purpose of the new LED installation. The purpose needs to be achieved through a good balance between aesthetic as well as functional lighting, in which aesthetic lighting is decisive for the overall atmosphere within the application area.
