light Series 4



light series 4! this space is amazing and the lighting quality is quite beautiful. This is a restaurant and bar and provides an ambient atmosphere for the customers and adds depth perception for the employees. the lighting in the space consisted of recessed incandescent and possibly a few fluorescent in the kitchen. The recessed lighting illuminated the curved ceiling and define each edge. There is possibly a rope light that is inset into a cove which illuminates the perimeter of the restaurant. Additionally there is incandescent lighting directed towards the bar area of the space so that both customers and employees can see the beverages. The colors in the space are neutral and the dominant color consists of a stained wood. The lighting seems appropriate because of the surrounding structure and selected materials. Although the lighting selection and placement is clever within the space, there was no floor level lighting which may have created a unique overall lighting effect.
