The first space where people find themselves in an establishment is the reception desk, a common area in hotels, corporate headquarters or public buildings. Spanish design brand, Vibia, specialized in lighting, reveals some keys.
The design of these spaces is diverse and is therefore difficult to create comfortable ambiences with a single type light fitting.
ACCENTUATE
The reception desk is a work space where tasks that require considerable care and attention are carried out. The surface must be lit in such a way that none of the users are dazzled.

CREATING AMBIENCES
The public area around the desk is normally provided with furniture pieces for visitors who can be seated comfortably while waiting. These are generally circulation areas where the lighting plays a role in creating an ambience.

WALL ART
The walls that surround the desk are the best canvas for displaying a WALL ART installation that is integrated with the atmosphere of the place through its own character, achieving a background of contrasts that helps to easily identify the counter.
