Hotel lighting seeks new patterns in design
The hotel is different from the “moving†public places such as subways, shopping malls, stations, etc. The hotel is “quiet†and is the place to stay for the guests to stay. The hints and feelings of the lighting to convey to the guests are: kind, warm and safe. Elegant, private... At the same time, it must be clear and accurate, and it can fully display the lighting effects of different light sources. Therefore, the hotel lighting design should fully mobilize all the characteristics of light, combined with the hotel's various functions and hotel design concepts, to create an ideal world of light, an art world to achieve comfort, artistry, unity and safety. design effect. As far as most hotels are concerned, whether it is a business hotel or a resort hotel, there are similar "standards". In fact, such standards do not refer to standards in the pattern or model, but should refer to functional standards, non-formal standards. Faced with the pattern of hotel lighting, how can designers break through the old standards and seek new design models? In this issue, we will conduct in-depth discussions based on the lighting design of different areas of the hotel.
Specialization is an opportunity for hotel lighting design
The hotel is known in English as the hospitality facilities, and the essence is a place of hospitality, pleasant and comfortable. Relative to other commercial designs in the city, the hotel is a relatively "quiet" place. It does not require rapid circulation of people, and hopes that they can stay and stay and consume at the hotel. For the architecture and interior design of the hotel, the hotel is the carrier of the city's new technology and new technology. It is the window of urban civilization. It is also the organ that the city will breathe. The hotel design should reflect its function, function and economic benefits. Novel and attractive. In this regard, the designer should have a heavy sense of mission, and the hotel design is not just an experimental product used by the godsend designers to experiment with new ideas, new technologies and new techniques. This is especially true for professional lighting designs. Lighting is a complementary element of the night, and the progress of human civilization has made our night life more colorful. The hotel's service is "to make the pace of the journey to stay", the hotel lighting "add color to the hotel's night life." The independent lighting design mostly started with the hotel lighting design, and then discovered the lighting design of the building exterior, public space interior, performance exhibition and so on. Hotel lighting is one of the most important things that designers should master and the hardest to master.
Shanghai interior designer Lu Peng said: "In the real world of the wilderness, changes in light and shadow are happening at any time. The hotel is also like this. The hotel is a living space, and it is a high-quality living space. The night is like a blank. The canvas, the lighting is like a brush on the canvas, so that the minimalist abstract works exude a subtle radiance, creating a miracle with professional lighting. In order to create a specific atmosphere for the hotel, to create the noble quality of the hotel, To make guests feel warm and comfortable, to leave a good impression, excellent lighting is indispensable. For high-end hotels, professional lighting design can effectively shape the hotel's unique atmosphere, while also obtaining good economic benefits. The professional hotel lighting design can achieve the rendering environment and the effect of the plot at night. In terms of economy, through professional design planning, the lighting cost can be controlled."
New mode of hotel lobby lighting: efficient use of natural light
The hotel's lobby is the initial or final impression of a guest staying or leaving. It is not only the satisfaction of the guests who are staying, but also attracting potential guests. Usually the illumination in the lobby will be adequate and rich in layers. First of all, the lobby should be an elusive space that can find the place you want to go without too many signs. Overall, it is a combination of warmth, comfort, visual stimulation and appeal, and easy access. The lobby is usually open, with a high ceiling and generally has natural light.
Chongqing interior designer Zhang Wei said: "How to apply natural light and effectively combine natural light and artificial light is the focus of hotel lobby lighting design. On the one hand, this is the atmosphere of the lobby changes with the time of day; on the other hand, It is also for economical and energy-saving needs. Some hotels such as the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in New York have adopted an intelligent lighting control system that uses daylight sensors to adjust the indoor manual according to the intensity of natural light, keeping the illumination of the entire area stable. Secondly, glare The processing and the uniformity between the regional lighting, the reception desk carries out a variety of work, reading, writing, playing the keyboard, so the entire reception desk should be kept above 300lx, and in this area should avoid the use of glare Highly reflective material for a tabletop or a very shiny surface."
In the lobby area, the reception desk must be a relatively bright one. The customer is very bright and bright when facing the reception desk. When the customer turns to the lobby, the vision should not be dim at all, so the illumination between the lobby and the reception desk is different. To grasp the degree. Shanghai interior designer Chen Junfeng said: "The ratio of illumination in the rest area to the reception area should be greater than 1:10, but it is not evenly distributed everywhere. The soft lighting makes it easy to get close to the conversation, and the moderate illumination is easy to identify. On the one hand, vertical illumination is a problem that most designers do not have to deal with. There are many activities in the lobby of the hotel, facial recognition and effective communication rely on good vertical illumination. Only some downlights are used to achieve the flat illumination. However, it is necessary to avoid the shadows on the face. Therefore, most of the five-star hotels use wall lamps and table lamps on the plane with the height. The lighting elements are a part of the characteristics, and the scattered light can soften the atmosphere. ."
New mode of hotel room lighting: following ergonomics
The guest room is from the door of the room, and the public corridor should be closed to the door of the room (the purpose lighting). The hotel room, the bedroom, the rest room, and the studio, not only need a relaxed atmosphere, but sometimes the guests need to concentrate. Among these different roles, lighting contributes a lot. There are not many fixtures in the entire room, often one fixture will take three to four purposes, and flexibility is the focus of processing. The usual practice is uniform, low-temperature general lighting combined with carefully arranged accent lighting to provide the customer with the need to work and rest. The indoor work area is generally centered on the writing desk, and powerful and sophisticated business functions are reflected here. Broadband, fax, telephone and various sockets should be arranged neatly; messy wires should also be stored clean. The position of the writing table should also be carefully considered according to the space. Good lighting and sight are very important. It is not possible to replace the function of the work light with a decorative lamp. Due to the flexible use of the lighting system, it is not necessary to sit on the wall like a room in the past. The functions of the entertainment and leisure area and the reception area in the room can be greatly changed. In the past, the function of the guest in the design of the business standard room was gradually weakened.
Gao Long, a designer of Wuhan Shangpin decorative space, said: "From the perspective of the guest, he hopes that the guest rooms are private and completely free. In the future, visitors will be inconvenient to bring them into the room; from the perspective of the hotel operator, they will be in the guest rooms. Of course, it is better to visit the hotel in the hotel, the latter produces efficiency, why not? This transformation creates room for the room to be more comfortable and enjoyable. The room design is more and more Many functions such as reading and listening to music have been added, which has changed the single situation in which people can only watch TV in bed. This also puts special requirements on lighting, and it is necessary to avoid similar lamps and the like in the ceiling. Direct light enters the line of sight of the person lying flat, resulting in uncomfortable glare. The largest functional area of ​​the entire room in the sleeping area. Dimmable lights or table lamps (wall lights are good), shaping the light environment to sleep It is important that the influence of its shape and light color on the whole room cannot be ignored. The bedside generally needs a switch to control the reading light and dimming, if using the lighting control system Scene control also needs to set the boundary switch panel at the bedside. The room and bathroom space is independent, the wind, water and electricity system are interlaced and complicated, the equipment is large, the area is small, and the ergonomic principle should be followed everywhere to make the humanized design. The countertop and the makeup mirror are The focus of the bathroom design should pay attention to the comprehensive use of environmental lighting and key lighting, both of which are indispensable. The most common method is to use the quartz lamp lighting above the basin and the mirror side or single-sided wall lighting, the bathing area is also required. The lighting is good. Another requirement for the room is to be as quiet as possible, so the lighting system needs to be considered together with the air conditioning, humidification or temperature control system, which is often overlooked by the lighting designer when choosing lighting."
The hotel's banquet hall is the most varied occasion. During the day, it may be necessary to have a suitable corporate seminar and corporate meeting atmosphere. In the evening, this conference hall becomes a place for wedding banquets or popular press conferences. In this short time, Atmosphere conversion, lighting is naturally the most effective tool. The hotel's business is diversified and natural lighting solutions must keep pace. The lighting control system makes the environment with high color temperature and high illumination uniform at the previous moment, and then becomes a private space with indirect illumination and warm colors. The lighting design here should be able to fully consider the use of the space to arrange various luminaires and design the scene.
In this regard, Shanghai interior designer He Xiaodong suggested: “The hotel banquet hall needs flexibility that suits the needs of users. It has certain functions, comfort and flexibility, and can be applied to different numbers of people and different purposes. The average indoor illumination of the room is 300. -500Lx or so, in terms of color selection, it is trapped as a special feature. We need to set a part of high color temperature lamps to adjust the overall color temperature of the space, and adjust the overall color temperature of the space to about 3500K. The light source selects high color rendering energy-saving lamps. The requirements of different conference modes, set the conference mode, banquet mode, projection mode, cleaning mode, and turn off some of the luminaires according to the lighting requirements to achieve energy saving. The lighting control system does not need to have hundreds of scene settings, some designs are too complicated As for the decoupling of design from the actual application, especially under the current domestic conditions, too many choices will make the residents feel at a loss. The lighting scene and lighting system control should be dominated by rich and easy behavior, so that the hotel operators can easily Quick mastery."
New model of hotel outdoor lighting: consider visual extensibility
The hotel's lighting is not limited to indoors, outdoor architectural lighting and landscape lighting are equally important. The architectural lighting of the hotel is a showcase of nighttime charm and an effective way to showcase the taste and even help the hotel become a landmark in the city. The importance of landscape lighting is self-evident, especially for resort hotels with a large proportion of landscapes, and more emphasis on the organic combination of natural environment. For the choice of outdoor decorative lighting, it should not be too ordinary or too casual, although some ordinary lamps can also attract people's attention to some extent, but combined with the positioning and characteristics of the hotel itself, use customized lamps or choose to be ingenious. The luminaires are more impressive for those who have experienced various hotels.
Wuhan interior designer Jiang Hui said: "The attention of the hotel outdoor landscape lighting design is to avoid these lamps because the contrast with the background is too bright to produce a bright spot, although the power of the light source may only be 25w. For lanterns with glass, etc. The choice should be to use a glass that can reduce the glare coefficient. Most traditional lanterns are transparent glass. The shape of the bulb in the luminaire is unobstructed and hinders the appearance. Therefore, some frosted, sandblasted glass or stained glass should be used for the luminaire to highlight the luminaire. The hotel itself is softer and the resort is proud of the guests who enjoy the spacious outdoor scenery, sculptures, water features, plants, while enjoying the view through the window while enjoying the view. Great fun - whether it's day or night, so pay attention to what you can see outside the night window, which is also the focus of lighting design in the resort. At this time, not only need to spend the light on the distant landscape, but also forget the window and The porch, so that when the visual extension, they will not become black frames, become a dark reflective surface, in order to bring the distant landscape Connected with the interior."
Hotel lighting seems to be simple, in fact, is a professional system engineering, which involves a wide range of details and human factors, the use of beam angle and light color can change tens of thousands of scenarios, can be imagined in lighting What kind of sophistication and focus in the design process.
Shenzhen interior designer Li Wei said: "We mainly consider the following factors in the hotel lighting design: (1) Energy-saving: Because the hotel conference center is basically in the indoor environment, basically no natural light enters, with flexibility Lighting mode and control mode to achieve energy saving. According to the importance of different regions and different scenarios, set different scenarios, establish different lighting standards, reduce the cost of lamps and electricity, and achieve the best with the least suitable and most suitable lamps. (2) Coordination: Designing different illumination according to the function of use to keep the activities free, so that the lighting design and the decorative design effect are coordinated, reflecting the harmonious and unified needs of the hotel. Lighting effects and atmosphere creation, decoration style and hotel Coordination of space requirements. Coordination of life and effect of light source. (3) Purpose: Focus on interior special decoration such as murals, artworks and green plants, water features, etc. according to the decorative design. Enrich the design elements of humanistic connotation, use lighting Shape the scene sketch, point out the design concept and theme. (4) Technical: In the hotel lighting design, you can Adopting new lighting products and new lighting technologies and innovative design concepts to reflect the characteristics of the times and forward-looking. To achieve flexible control, intelligent control can be realized according to the hierarchical control mode, sub-scenarios or time periods. According to relevant national technical standards and norms, To meet the requirements of the hotel's various service functions. (5) Security: Security is an element that cannot be ignored in any space. There are two main points to consider: First, to ensure the safety of personnel in the space and to ensure sufficient visibility, such as identification. Obstacle, warning color and moving objects; second, to ensure the safety requirements of the lighting equipment itself, such as heat dissipation, radiation, load-bearing or electric spark, etc. (6) Green environmental protection: comprehensive consideration of the use of long-life, high-efficiency products, Choose halogen source, fluorescent, LED, etc. according to your needs in different functional areas to prevent glare and prevent light pollution."
Find a balance between lighting effects and energy savings
When designers design hotels, the most important thing is to share design ideas and ideas with hotel managers, so that they can participate in the design work of the hotel to solve the problem of space positioning, thus improving design efficiency. Reasonable design arrangements can increase productivity, and good lighting can help employees and residents with a more streamlined behavior. On the other hand, a good lighting design will leave guests with a deep impression after their stay and will most likely mention it to their friends. These are the values ​​of design.
Most domestic hotels are relatively new, relatively large, and modern in design style. European hotels have a long history and their design style is conservative. In general, most of the existing hotels follow the patterns and guidelines that emerged during the last round of global hotel construction. With the needs of the Asia-Pacific market, major international hotel chains have to build a large number of hotels, which have promoted the emergence of new hotel design standards and models, which has also prompted the hotel's lighting design industry to make corresponding changes. At the same time, the unstoppable demands of energy conservation and advances in lighting technology and equipment have also contributed to this change.
Shenzhen interior designer Cheng Jun also said: "Lighting designers need to consider how to reduce the investment cost from the perspective of the owner. It is a designer's mission to design the maximum amount of money for the owners. However, it is worth the illumination here. Designers are concerned that in the early stages of the hotel's design, it is not possible to just ignore the long-term use value from the purpose of saving money for the owner. Because sometimes design techniques and equipment changes can be used to save short-term investment costs, but In the long run, it will increase the cost of repair and dismantling. This approach is lack of forward-looking. Good design can withstand the test of time. Of course, the long-term maintenance of design value depends on the materials and equipment used. How to maintain and maintain. And in terms of hotels, many benefits need to be guaranteed by lighting effects, so lighting designers need to balance, compromise or adhere to lighting effects and energy saving restrictions."
The starting point of the hotel lighting design is to meet the lighting needs of the end users. Different hotel areas and different positioning determine the shape of the future guests. In the future, the requirements of the guests are getting higher and higher. As designers, they must have a keen insight and innovative spirit, so that the design can not only keep up with the times, but also in the next ten years or even twenty years. Long life, considering the rapid advancement of lighting technology and the possible changes, we are constantly seeking new models of hotel lighting design to create a more humanized space.
