Hospitality lighting is the art of creating memorable experiences. In today’s hyper-competitive hospitality industry, using lighting to create long-lasting positive impressions is one way that leading brands separate themselves from the competition. Creative, effective and comfortable lighting in hotel lobbies, guestrooms, restaurants, bars, corridors, and meeting facilities will lend a pleasurable stay to visitors and guests, engage them in a variety of activities, entice them to return, and provide positive word of mouth references. From the welcoming atmosphere of a lobby to enchanting, relaxing guestroom lighting to the flattering glow of an intimate restaurant, recessed lighting is an indispensable component of a successful lighting scheme that contributes to an attractive, comfortable and functional environment.
Recessed luminaires provide low-glare light to bring task or general illuminance or add drama to the reception desk area, lounge, specialty stores, elevator lobbies, service area, restrooms, and other areas housed by the lobby. In a typical hotel room, downlights are mounted around the perimeter of the room or over the bed to provide accent and functional lighting. The ability of recessed lighting to maintain deep source regression for silent ceilings allows public corridors to be illuminated with a sense of tranquility and peace. Downlights provide uniform ambient and task lighting in ballrooms and multifunctional meeting rooms. Recessed lighting is used as a supplement to round off a balanced composition of light in restaurants and bars.
