Luminaire

Objective: design and construct a luminaire for a setting of your choice.

The interior dining area in the Nazca restaurant has a rich material pallete. Wooden floors, concrete steps, and suede chairs warm the interior space. The goal for lighting this area was to keep the dining atmosphere intimate between the occupant and his/her party.

The materials chosen for the luminaire were taken from the wooden floors in the restaurant and the glass windows that offer a view to the outside. The glass within the wooden members lights up to designate seating area but keeps the table visble. This in turn personalizes the dining experience by only allowing enough light for the table users.
