Illumination of facades of restaurants, cafes

Architectural lighting of catering establishments is a guarantee of successful business development. The facade of a cafe or restaurant shimmering with colored lights attracts the attention of visitors, standing out against the background of adjacent buildings.

Lighting designers from Fossa Electric will help develop a unique lighting design for bars, cafes and restaurants in Moscow and other cities of Russia.

Features of lighting of cafes and restaurants

Architectural lighting of the restaurant facade serves as an unobtrusive advertisement of the establishment, attracting visitors to it. If the bar facade is dark, the establishment will be known only to a limited circle of regulars, which negatively affects the profitability of the business. At the same time, even basic window lighting with LED strips completely transforms the exterior of the building, making it noticeable at night.

External lighting of the facade of a bar, restaurant or cafe emphasizes individual elements of the building: columns, arches, bas-reliefs, entrance groups, creating a general architectural composition.

Lighting can be:

Architectural lighting - highlights individual sections of the building, focusing attention on the elements of the facade. This option looks great on objects made in the colonial style. The power and spatial arrangement of the lamps are selected individually, depending on the technical characteristics of the object.
Dynamic - a controlled light panel made of multi-colored lamps. Restaurant owners can change the nature and intensity of lighting to their taste. Such solutions look very impressive regardless of the time of day.
Belt-light - LED strips with a fixed pitch of spot lighting. This solution is ideal for decorating cornices, window openings, moldings and summer verandas.

Owners of country restaurants and cafes located in detached buildings can order illumination of the adjacent territory. Floodlights and spotlights will illuminate not only the facade, but also pedestrian paths, fountains, gazebos. This will help to create a general lighting composition and an original design style.

Cafe Lighting Tasks

Architectural lighting of cafes is the process of installing special lighting to highlight their architectural features and create a spectacular visual impression. The main tasks of architectural lighting of catering establishments include:

Emphasizing the shape and lines of the building: architectural lighting allows you to emphasize the unique shapes and lines of the building, which may not be noticeable during the day or under normal lighting. It helps to highlight the architectural details of a historical building if the establishment is located in the historical center of the city and creates an impressive contrast with the surrounding space if the cafe or restaurant is located outside the city.
Creating an emotional atmosphere: architectural lighting can be used to create a certain emotional atmosphere around the establishment. It can add a romantic, mysterious or festive mood, depending on the chosen color and intensity of the lighting. This is especially true for restaurants that have banquet halls and are focused on weddings and anniversaries.
Improving visibility and safety: architectural lighting can improve the visibility of a building at night, which is especially important for marking emergency exits, roof exits and other safety features. It can also help create a safe and welcoming atmosphere for passersby and visitors.
Attention-grabbing and advertising: architectural lighting can be used as an effective advertising tool and attract the attention of potential visitors.

Visit to the site to obtain the most accurate information;
Computer visualization of the model in 2D and 3D formats;
Necessary technical calculations using modern software;
Ordering or manufacturing lighting equipment and metal structures;
Preparation of design and technical documentation;
Coordination of the project with KGIOP and KGA.

Pouring

Suitable if you need to highlight the entire building. For uniform illumination of the facade, we use white light of different shades (from cold to warm). Perfect for landmarks.

Contour

We highlight the protruding parts of the building: ends, columns, cornices, windows, arched openings. It is carried out on separate parts of the building or along the entire perimeter. For illumination we use LED strips and garlands.

Background

Suitable for free-standing buildings, structures, architectural elements. Powerful spotlights snatch the object from the darkness: the building seems to emerge from the void, attracting the attention of passers-by.

Dynamic

A lighting solution that allows you to change the appearance of buildings depending on the weather, event or time of day. We use programmable LED lights.

Accent

Accent lighting is designed to highlight architectural elements: columns, window openings, moldings. We use soft, diffused light from narrow-beam LED spotlights.
