At Asterid, located within the iconic Walt Disney Concert Hall, our lighting design aims to enhance the dining experience by intricately blending with the architectural elements and the vibrant, intimate interior.

We focused on creating a warm, inviting glow that radiates throughout the space and into the city, establishing the restaurant as a welcoming beacon for diverse visitors. The design includes strategically hidden light sources behind and beneath the textured wood wall panels, which play a crucial role in animating the space with a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. This interaction emphasizes the geometric patterns and the texture of the panels, contributing to the overall ambiance of warmth and familiarity. The lighting at the bar, designed to appear as if floating, draws guests inward, fostering a seamless visual and spatial connection across the restaurant's various areas.

Our approach not only highlights the unique architectural features but also complements the natural materials and rich textures, enhancing the tactile and visual depth essential for an engaging, memorable dining experience.
