Lobby

Atmospheric reception area

Scenario

The lobby is the first impression of a hotel, restaurant or hospitality concept. Light welcomes guests, stages architecture and materials and changes the atmosphere from bright daytime operation to calm arrival and atmospheric evening or event scenes.


The challenge

Lobby areas need to feel representative, safe, intuitive and flexible. Different times of day, visitor flows, events, cleaning and branding requirements need suitable lighting moods that are easy to operate while supporting energy efficiency, orientation and premium spatial impact.

The solution

Casambi enables flexible reception, daytime, evening and event scenes via app, switch or time profile. Protopixel adds dynamic light surfaces, CI colours, signature rooms and animated light objects that emotionally enhance lobby areas and make brand identity visible.


Functions

automatically activates suitable lighting moods according to time of day, opening hours or operational routines.

Scene control

Animated light objects

create special focal points, for example above reception, lounge areas or central architectural surfaces.

CI/branding light

integrates brand colours, hotel identity or special design motifs into the lighting concept.
