OBIKÀ
MOZZARELLA BAR
LONDON
The new Obikà restaurant in London project had as a central theme of the lighting scheme the focus on the detail and the highlight of the quality of the products that travel from Italy up until the UK.
For this reason, Metis Lighting elaborated the lighting project underlining this intention articulating the lighting layout in small and substantial lighting details.
The Hospitality lighting approach of Metis lighting, and in particular on the Obikà Restaurant was based on scenography principles starting from the basic concept of illuminating only where necessary: narrow beam lighting fixtures focused on the tables, on the product as exhibited on the shelves and on the bar counter.
A diffuse lighting component is introduced over the bar counter from a big scale lantern-like decorative structure sheding the bar seatings with an intimate light. Apart from this structure, glasses and bottles are also allocated in hanging glass shelves and give out a shimmering effect under the direct light of small spotlights.
The Obikà Restaurant lighting scheme included also the new illumination of the façade, with small projectors focused on the logo for increasing the restaurant’s identity and presence on the corner of the building.
