A considered approach
Hotel terrace & rooftop lighting
Use low-level accents and warm table light rather than floodlighting the whole terrace. Review the view from nearby rooms and streets. A coastal location may need a different finish from an inland sheltered courtyard. Confirm outdoor suitability and operating temperatures, and agree a closing-time scene to reduce unnecessary light overnight.
What matters here
- 01
Shield light from neighbours and bedrooms
- 02
Consider wind, salt and rain exposure
- 03
Plan practical charging and storage for portable lamps
What to include in your brief
