THE BATH STUDIO

The Bath Studio located in the city of Pune is a retail showroom designed as a gallery-like viewing experience of the products. The lighting design enhanced the strong geometry of the interiors through sharp shadows and high contrast.

Studio Trace conceived the lighting scheme to be a perfect amalgamation of direct and indirect lighting. Lights were strategically placed to avoid glare and to prevent any shadow multiplication caused by the ceiling curves. Focusing on the fixtures, perfected over multiple site mockups, ensured that there was no distracting reflections in the glass windows and doors after the sun went down.

The cantilevered wooden balconies were highlighted and became a signature feature of the project, distinguishing the showrooms from their neighbors. The central conference room casts sharp shadows outwards - emphasizing the notion of a lampshade.

The technical specifications of the light fixtures installed took careful cognizance of the color rendering of the wood, emphasizing the grains. The overall lighting scheme drew the visitor's attention to the different textures and colors hidden in the strong form and intricate details.
