When choosing lighting for any type of business, there are certain features you want to keep in mind. Lighting can be used to create an atmosphere that will attract customers. As a business owner, you also want lighting that is efficient and budget-friendly. When it comes to lighting a bakery, there are a few things you want to consider. Here are a few tips on choosing the right bakery lighting.
- Different areas, different lighting. Lighting is not one size fits all. Lights in areas that customers are exposed to should have different features than the lighting used in the baking and staff areas. While the goal of the baking area is often safety and quality, which require higher levels of light, the goal for customer areas tend to involve creating a warm, relaxing environment, which means lower light levels.
- Choose the right color temperature. When choosing bakery lighting applications, you need to consider how much daylight your customer areas receive. If you have larger windows that let in a lot of natural light, you want to choose matching lighting indoors. In other words, you do not want to have warm artificial light with an orange or yellow hue because it will look out of place with the cool, white natural light streaming in through the windows. If you have very little natural light, these factors will not matter as much.
- Keep a consistent color throughout the area. If your cases have one color temperature while the seating areas have a second color temperature it can be off-putting to the eyes. Try to maintain color consistency throughout the areas that are connected to one another. However, areas that are separated by a door or walls, such as the staff and customer areas can have drastically different color temperatures without worry.
- Provide ample light for tasks. One of the most important elements of finding the right bakery lighting applications is to consider the eyesight of your staff. If they have to strain to perfect the details of an icing job due to poor lighting or the lighting is so bright that it causes discomfort, it will negatively impact your staff and business. A good rule of thumb is that you need 50 lumens per square foot for staff areas to facilitate more focused endeavors that require closer attention to detail.
