If you run a restaurant, you know that atmosphere is everything. Your guests don't just come for the food—they come to feel something. To arrive, feel comfortable, and enjoy themselves. This is where the secret to successful restaurant lighting begins.
Because light is more than just brightness. It's emotion, it's design, it's the invisible tool you use to tell stories. At the Edelwies-Alm – a place that combines rustic naturalness with modern charm – skapetze® was able to show how lighting planning and luminaire design go hand in hand.
The task was clear: to create a lighting concept that emphasizes the architectural beauty of the Alm, conveys warmth and coziness, and puts every dish in the perfect spotlight.
Restaurant lighting is therefore no coincidence. It is art. And it begins with a vision.
Imagine you are entering the Edelwies Alm. It smells of fresh wood, the alpine air lies in the nose, and a soft, golden light welcomes you. This light does not seem harsh or artificial—it embraces you. It brings every room to life, makes every glass of wine sparkle, and illuminates every detail of the interior.
Here, skapetze® didn't just install lights. Here, a lighting concept for the senses was created. With sensitivity, technical expertise, and a clear goal: to design the restaurant lighting in such a way that it continues to tell the story of the place.
The Edelwies-Alm is a prime example of the power of s.luce luminaires. Every lamp, every light color, every position was deliberately chosen. The result is not just lighting—it's atmosphere.
"With our lighting design, we wanted to emphasize the special atmosphere of the Edelwies Alm – modern, yet warm and inviting. The result shows how strategically used light can perfectly combine architecture and emotion."
skapetze® relies on its in-house brand for its projects s.luce – lights that are not only design objects, but also real mood enhancers. Several models were used at the Edelwies-Alm Each with its own personality and function in the overall concept of restaurant lighting.
The s.luce Orb floats in the room like a glowing sphere. Its shape is reminiscent of classic glass balls, but its effect is modern and elegant. In the Edelwies-Alm, it provides warm, even lighting above the dining tables – ideal for making food look authentic and appetizing.
Restaurant lighting thrives on balance – and the s.luce Orb achieves just that: it combines function with feeling, design with atmosphere.
Rustic meets modern: s.luce Made lights perfectly highlight the natural character of the alpine pasture. Their materials – metal and wood – blend together to create a harmonious overall picture. In combination with dimmable LED technology, the result is a light that can be flexibly adapted to the time of day and mood.
For restaurateurs, this means more control, more emotion, and a better experience for guests.
The s.luce Ball is a statement in minimalism. Its simple spherical shape fits into any room concept and lends the ambience a sense of calm and lightness. In the Edelwies-Alm, it provides soft, glare-free light – an essential component of any well-designed restaurant lighting.
Because good light doesn't stand out – it works. And that's exactly what the Ball series does.
The s.luce Santa Neo is more than just a light – it is an architectural element. Its sophisticated shape casts fascinating shadows on the walls, creating depth and dynamism. It unfolds its full magic especially in lounge and bar areas.
Light thus becomes a design element that arouses emotions and defines spaces.
With its clear, striking structure, the s.luce Crutch adds a modern accent to the Alm. It combines industrial design with a warm light image – an ideal mix for restaurateurs who want to combine authenticity and style.
In combination with wood and stone, it creates a harmonious interplay of contrasts that delights guests.
The s.luce Ring is the Star above every table. Its circular design creates even light distribution and attracts everyone's attention. In the Edelwies-Alm, it was used as a central element to structure the room and add a modern touch.
Restaurant lighting also means creating focus, directing atmosphere, and controlling emotions.
A successful restaurant thrives on harmony. Colors, furniture, materials – everything works together. But without the right lighting, even the most beautiful interior will look dull.
skapetze® knows from experience: lighting is the soul of a room. It determines whether Guests want to relax, stay longer, order another glass of wine, or leave immediately.
The restaurant lighting at Edelwies-Alm shows that perfect lighting can be invisible—it doesn't stand out, but it changes everything.
For you as a restaurateur, light is not an accessory – it is a sales factor. The right restaurant lighting can make your food look more appealing, extend the length of stay, and increase well-being. skapetze® understands this perfectly.
