Lighting Observation #9

1.) April 5th, 2025 – 7:32pm – a restaurant in West Village

2.) The many intricate and different light fixtures along the wall of this restaurant.

3.) As I stepped through the narrow door of the restaurant, the icy sting of the air outside was washed away by a wave of warmth. The building was obviously warmer than outside, but it was the brilliant wall of lights that really created the ambiance within the room. There was no overhead lighting, just a collage of intricate fixtures that looked as if they had been collected over many years. All of them were glowing in a similar warm tone, making the inside of the restaurant feel like a warm hug. The dim lighting made the space feel even smaller, furthering the cozy environment being underscored by the live piano. Looking out the window at the cold, dull light, I never wanted to leave comfortable haven I was in.
