This is no secret, as anyone who has stepped into a well-designed restaurant will attest that it&#039;s a subject the proprietors of these establishments take seriously. However, it begs the question: What makes for good lighting design in these types of businesses, and what role can a gobo image projector play in creating the right atmosphere?<\/p>\n<p>There&#039;s no one right answer to this question. The lighting of a fast food diner will differ significantly from that of a three-star Michelin restaurant. The former may require bright, functional lighting that serves only to make the establishment look busy while the latter will usually have a dimmer, more intimate lighting scheme to set an appropriately subdued mood.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to gobos, clubs are the most likely to use these in their design. This is because so much of a club&#039;s success depends on the spectacle it presents to customers. And while a custom gobo can make a powerful statement in such a setting, that doesn&#039;t mean that other businesses, whether it&#039;s a bar, cafe or fancy restaurant, can&#039;t benefit as well.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best ways to use gobos in these settings would be to install them outside the building as exterior lighting accents. It&#039;s easy to have a custom gobo made with your restaurant&#039;s logo, and with a quality LED projector you can have it display at night on the side of your building. This adds a terrific elegance to your exterior design, and it has the extra benefit of giving you more flexibility&nbsp;&mdash; if your logo or name changes, you won&#039;t have to repaint your building.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s difficult to overstate the importance of lighting design in creating a successful bar, restaurant or nightclub
