The idea behind for this project was to create the lighting atmosphere for a Mediterranean inspired gastronomy quarter, which is made of three F&B outlets with distinctive concepts.
At La Mezcaleria, the design takes cues from Mexican handcraft construction methods. Lighting is manipulated to create strong contrasts and shadows to create a sense of drama.
Spotlights are fitted with different beam angles, dimmed and placed on specifically placed to lit up only what has to be illuminated. Diner’s attention are directed to a series of alcoves and light niches, leading them to the grand reveal of the grand arched bar. In the private room, the drama of the wall of masks is further emphasized by casting strong shadows, indirect light and a unique atmosphere provided by candles.
