1. Ambient Lighting

This is the most essential form of café lighting. The best way to describe ambient lighting is by comparing it to the make-up foundation. Just like you put a steady coat of foundation as a base for your make-up, similarly, ambient lighting is the linchpin to a good lighting layer base. It consists of a steady row of LED’s arranged at equidistant intervals to ensure an equal spread of light.

This equal spread of light is an important part of the café interior design because it creates a natural environment that can be further accented through other lighting interventions. It also makes the overall setting seem more hospitable and friendly; which is always a plus for places like restaurants and cafes.
