Bar minimum illuminance: Just enough to see your glass

The interior of a bar, where the overall illumination is suppressed to an extremely low level, almost the darkest among all commercial spaces. Light only appears in three necessary places: a very narrow downward light on the bar counter, making the bartender's hand movements and glasses clearly visible; backlighting on the shelves of the liquor cabinet behind, making the colors and labels of the bottles a visual focus; and a small lamp at each seating area that only illuminates the glass and hands. Guests' faces are in semi-darkness, expressions are visible but details are blurred, which is precisely the desired effect. Walls, ceiling, and floor are almost completely black. The color temperature is extremely warm. Avoid: illuminating seating areas and aisles, using general ceiling lighting, fully illuminating guests' faces, brightening walls and ceiling.

一間酒吧的室內,整體照度壓到極低,幾乎是所有商業空間中最暗的。光只出現在三個必要的地方:吧檯檯面上一道極窄的下照光,讓調酒師的手部動作與酒杯清楚可見;後方酒櫃的層板背光,讓酒瓶的顏色與標籤成為視覺焦點;以及每個座位處一盞小到只照亮杯子與雙手的燈。客人的臉處在半明半暗中,表情看得見但細節模糊,這正是想要的效果。牆面、天花與地面幾乎全黑。色溫極暖。避免:把座位區與走道照亮、使用天花的一般照明、讓客人的臉被完全打亮、把牆面與天花提亮。
