THE KNIGHT CAP

THIS RESTAURANT WILL BE REMINISCENT OF THE DOMINANT PRESENCE OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. THE AESTHETIC WILL BE BASED ON INDUSTRIAL TEXTURES INHERITED FROM THE METROPOLIS CITY. THE LIGHTING DESIGN WILL BE BASED ON DIFFUSED AND DIRECT AMBIENT LIGHTING. DROPPED PENDANT LIGHTING WILL BE THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF LIGHT, WHILE OTHER RECESSED LIGHTING WILL CREATE A SOFT, AMBIENT APPEAL. THE LIGHT FIXTURES WILL ALSO FUNCTION AS KEY FOCAL POINTS THROUGHOUT THE SPACE. IN ADDITION, SUSTAINABLE PHOTO SENSORS WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO THE DESIGN TO AID WITH MINIMIZING ENERGY USAGE.

THE LIGHT FIXTURES WILL BE INSPIRED BY THE ORBITAL, ORGANIC MOVEMENTS OF CELESTIAL COSMOS. THE LIGHT WILL BE EMITTED DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY. UPWARD, THE LIGHT WILL REFLECT OFF OF THE CEILING. DOWNWARD, THE LIGHT WILL BE DIFFUSED, WHILE OMITTING A GLOWING AURA. FIRST, THE DROPPED PENDANT LIGHT WILL USE O-LED PANELS THAT CONFORM TO A FLUID SHAPE. ALSO, GLASS ORBS WILL REACT WITH FIBER OPTIC WIRES TO CREATE A SOFT, DIFFUSED GLOW THAT WILL REFLECT ONTO MANY SURFACES. THEN, THE WALL MOUNTED LIGHT FIXTURE WILL BE A COMPLIMENTARY PIECE THAT FEATURES THE SAME FLUID SHAPE, ALONG WITH A CIRCULAR BASE.
