The importance of good lighting in restaurants. Seven international projects by Vibia

Fully savouring a culinary experience is not just about the food. It's about the ambience where the dishes are served, the friendliness with which the food is served as well as the lighting that best shows off its textures and colours: everything adds to the experience of making eating pleasure.

A new generation of restaurants is very well aware of the importance of creating a pleasant atmosphere, and paying particular attention to the lighting that plays such a key role in defining the ambience. Whether it be Zurich, Stockholm or Barcelona the VIBIA range of designer lamps are suspended or installed with the elegance that characterises them, discreet but functional when it comes to setting the tone where the gastronomic adventure is unfolded.

Vibia invites you to come with us on a whirlwind tour through some of the world's most cozy restaurants; Breakfast or a late Brunch at the Schiller Brasserie in Zurich presided over by Slim (Jordi Vilardell) its elegant silhouette is the perfect condiment for their Goethe Club Sandwich, served with chips and free range eggs.

Kenshō - Mykonos

And when night falls, what better way to enjoy al-fresco dining than at the foot of the Psarou beach on the Greek island of Mykonos. Kenshō, the restaurant of the 5 star boutique hotel, serves kakavia, a typical fish soup made contemporary through the “sensations” cooking approach practised by its renowned chefs. The stars provide the romantic setting here while the minimal design expression is provided by the Bamboo lamps (Antoni Arola and Enric Rodríguez). Enjoy!
