The impact of artificial lighting to the cyles of use in a restaurant-bar places

Light has a fundamental role in our spatial perception. Our sensitivity to its different compositions makes light an indispensable tool for the design of indoor places. Indeed, once we take into account the contemporary lifestyle of cosmopolitan cities, the role of artificial lighting in the interior design become more evident. For the lack of daylight, the artificial light becomes more important for the time limits of daily use in the indoor places. As the emphasis on efficiency evolves into a principle of life, people demand the same virtues of flexibility and multi-tasking that they are required to master in their daily schedules. In response to these demands, enterprises turn into utilizing the full-functionality of the place they are established in-to, in order to increase the variety of their services. The expansion of the services directly affect the daily routine; and hence the cycles of use of indoor places evolving into multi-functional places. This work aims to contribute to the existing literature by establishing the importance of artificial lighting in functionally recurrent spaces as restaurant-bar places.
