Light gives pleasure.
The two essential ingredients for perfect restaurant lighting are atmosphere and zoning.
Atmosphere is created by sensitive nuanced light; zoning with light creates cosy areas within the restaurant. Overall, the lighting should be subtle and reserved but walkways, service zones and other activity areas should be more brightly lit. Tables and other seating areas call for a relaxing atmosphere. The light should be bright enough to enable menus to be read in comfort and for people’s faces to be easily seen, but subdued enough to create a sense of privacy in which to enjoy the meal. Another important element is a characteristic style for the restaurant, accentuated with in-house colours and design. This is made easier by a dimmable lighting system.

Light shows professionalism
Lighting in modern offi ce and administration buildings must above all perform two basic functions. It must create a pleasant environment for in which people can concentrate and work effectively, and it must create the right atmosphere so that customers and visitors can easily fi nd their way around and feel comfortable and welcome. The important thing here is for the lighting to be suitable for the
particular sector of industry, the tasks to be carried out and the zones in which these tasks are performed.
Light provides special services.
Call centres should not give out an air of hectic activity but should of calm assurance and
com petence. If the people in call centres are to provide prompt and “transparent” answers to questions they need to concentrate properly, for which they need optimum lighting at their desks and especially around their screens. To prevent unnecessary noise from other workers and from customers the workplaces are usually enclosed in sound-absorbent half-height partitions. These elements are ideal for attaching indirect luminaires fi tted with high-wattage compact fl uorescent lamps. Individual lighting requirements can then be met with additional desk lights for the immediate workspace.
