Smart use of LED downlights to create restaurant lighting


The lighting of LED lighting fixtures represented by LED downlights, clever use of LED downlights to create restaurant lighting, can not only affect the atmosphere in the restaurant itself, but also the only magic weapon to drive the mood of customers when dining. In terms of restaurant lighting, reasonable selection of LED downlights, LED spotlights, light strips and other lighting fixtures, and lights that are compatible with the restaurant style, can better reflect and express the concept and personality of catering civilization. To deal with light and shadow, bright and dark, real and virtual, and other light environments, is the key point of restaurant lighting design research. Let's take a look at how to use LED downlights to create restaurant lighting.



An important feature of LED downlights is the ability to reflect color. This ability is called color rendering, which is described by a professional parameter: the color rendering index, the symbol is Ra. The color rendering index of the light source is as high as 100. The higher the index, the better the color rendering performance and the higher the color restoration of the illuminated object.


      Then for the color temperature of the restaurant, we generally see that the lights and lanterns manufacturers indicate that the products will be marked with similar marking methods such as the color rendering index Ra> 90 (R9> 50). The degree of natural color restoration is very high, and R9>50 indicates that the light has good color restoration ability for red objects.


      The expression of dishes is inseparable from the assistance of high color rendering index lights. A color rendering index obviously greater than 90 can better reflect the appearance of the dishes and increase the appetite of diners. Whether it is a Chinese restaurant or a Western restaurant, the quality of lighting is very important. The recommended color temperature for Chinese restaurants is 3000-3500k, and the color temperature for western restaurants is 2700-3000k. If you want the dishes to sell better, then the restoration of the color is very important.


     Regarding the selection and placement of restaurant lights, the lights used in the basic lighting of Chinese restaurants are mainly LED downlights and LED spotlights, and medium-angle and wide-angle beam angles are commonly used. Non-adjustable lights are commonly used in walkways, while adjustable viewpoints are often used to wash walls and illuminate decorations. Adjustable lights are often used for key lighting in Chinese restaurants. Most of the beam angles are middle or narrow angles, which can accurately illuminate the desktop. The required orientation, the effect of whether the tabletop of the Chinese restaurant has key lighting is very different, and the tabletop with obvious tabletop lighting can better express the dishes and arouse the appetite of the diners.


      The restaurant lighting should also consider the partition lighting of the restaurant, the materials used for restaurant decoration, the deployment of direct light and indirect light - such as the connection between light troughs and downlights, rational application of colored light, setting scene modes, and adjustable scenes for day and night lights mode, as well as the selection of lighting in the restaurant, etc.


      In the face of today's young people's continuous pursuit of personalization, the catering industry is also constantly exploring the way forward in the trend. How to use LED downlights to create restaurant lighting also means that traditional catering has been greatly tested. The use of LED downlights, LED spotlights, light strips and other LED lighting fixtures, the placement of lighting design will still follow certain basic ideas, in order to better retain customers.
