Lighting Hotel Public Areas, Chester

The Solution

To emphasise the double height space in the reception area, a 6m bespoke chandelier was designed and supplied, creating a beautiful focal point, establishing a sense of space. Chandeliers provide a warm and welcoming feel to any space and are an ideal solution for lighting areas with high ceilings. The lights of the chandelier are reflected and refracted in its crystals and glass, contributing to the warm atmosphere.

A Stunning Bespoke Chandelier

We designed and supplied a lighting control system that is linked to an astronomical time clock, to provide automatic lighting control in foyers and corridors. This provides correct and precise illumination levels throughout the day e.g. morning, evening, nighttime with motion sensing which increases energy efficiency to lesser used areas. 

Staircase lighting for added ambience during evening hours

In-ground up-lights were used to enhance columns and architectural features. Low-level wall recessed lights were used within the feature stone staircase to enhance its presence and provide added visibility to stair treads during the evening and nighttime.

Automatic lighting control means a seamless change from day to night

The ability to set scenes and change light levels depending on the time of day is also an energy saving technique. The lighting control system allows the client to use the correct amount of energy for the desired application, space and time of day.

Automatic lighting control in the foyer and reception areas of the hotel allows the client to present the hotel interior correctly for each time of the day, with smooth dimming and effortless results. Lighting control also makes it easier for the staff to change the mood, providing a seamless, uninterrupted ambience from day to night.
