Steps to take into account in the lighting of a hotel.

At the end of the article we show you how to do it

First the design, style and atmosphere that we want to offer the guest and the image of the hotel that we want to project for this, the lighting must be in accordance with the values ​​and philosophy of the hotel, with the architectural structure of the spaces and the natural light playing with the optimal color combinations on the walls, structures and furniture that will give us an approximate idea of ​​the number of luminaires that each space will need

Lightweight materials and matte finishes will maximize the benefits of natural light in areas illuminated by the sun’s rays, while light walls and highly reflective finishes will maximize the effectiveness of your lighting system.

For this there are several types of hotel lighting

• Ambient lighting: indoor areas of activity during the day and security and protection in outdoor areas.
• Lighting for functional use: bedside lamps, individual kitchen lights, spotlights for bathroom mirrors, wall lights.
