Most of the luminaires are located in the ceiling, but the majority of the lighting comes through the windows. During the day the lights are on but not really used. At night, the windows are not dependent for lighting and the luminaries provide all visibility. The room holds seven windows and one exterior door. There are a few wall sconces and all are directed upwards. There is no pattern of lighting in this room but there are a few focal points. The main lighting at night is track lighting of spotlights. They are directed towards the tables but put out dim lighting and not necessarily direct focal points. The wall sconces help create the “bar mood.” There are also rotating disc lights that advertise different beers. These lights are obviously not intended for lighting a space, but merely for decoration and advertisement. Also contributing in the least,are eight televisions and a few advertising neon string signs. I don’t really see any problems that need to be addressed. There is one glare factor that happens on a hanging plastic banner advertising a beer. The light is directly in front of it so it produces a slight glare. The banner was obviously placed long after the lighting was installed. Behind the bar is minimal lighting.They only exist in the cubbies housing the glassware. The lighting provides numerous shadows.Overall, the space has a relaxed setting. The room is not too large so it’s intimate, but its also not so small to be crowded.
