Mixed formality zones

Break rooms often have both formal tables and informal soft seating. Lighting reinforces this distinction: brighter, more even light at tables for eating, lower, warmer light at lounges for relaxation.

Medium Mid-Range
Approach Detail

Table areas: 300-400 lux, 3000-3500K, pendant or recessed. Lounge areas: 150-200 lux, 2700-3000K, floor/table lamps, indirect. Clear transition between zones. Both zones feel intentional, not under-lit by accident.

Key Fixtures

Pendants over tables, floor lamps and table lamps in lounge, dimmable ambient, zone control

Designer Notes

Show both zones in one render: the active, brighter table area and the calm, darker lounge. The lighting tells you what each zone is for. Both are inviting in different ways.
