Community and event spaces
Lecture hall in the Mannheim Business School in Germany. The hall is designed in a futuristic style with red and white colours and is arranged in a semi-circle.

Lighting for large stages and vibrant interactions

Whether it’s a lecture hall, auditorium, or event hall - these are spaces where knowledge, culture, and community converge. A flexible lighting design allows for seamless transitions between lectures, presentations, and festive events. Precisely attuned lighting creates a clear focus, highlights speakers, and transforms the room into an immersive, atmospheric event space at the touch of a button

Ceremonial and lecture halls/auditoriums

Supporting multifunctional use

The light needed in lecture halls is as varied as the use of space, with high seating capacity in an often rigid and visually focused arrangement: from bright to dimmed, from bluish activating to reddish calming and festive mood lighting. The use of multimedia equipment and placing the focus on the teacher or presenter, requires a well-attuned lighting concept at the front of the hall, for good contrast and to easily recognise the presenter's facial expressions, ensuring the audience's full attention.

PLAY ­AND RECREATION AREAS

Sensory play zones in and around the building

The design of recreational and play areas in all-day care facilities, preschools and nurseries has a lasting impact on social, cognitive and motor skills. The zone-dependent adjustment of light levels and colour temperatures creates a dynamic space that supports a variety of sensory play and learning experiences. Creating safety with the right light is a fundamental requirement – both outdoors and indoors.

CATERING & CAFETERIAS

From culinary to social enjoyment

Canteens are more than just functional places to satisfy hunger. The design approach takes into account the need for friendly interactions, relaxation and communication. The canteen is a hub for communication. The focus is therefore on supporting informal interactions between pupils, students and teachers. An important argument for perfectly coordinated intensity, light colour and colour rendering in relation to the food: As we all know, you eat with your eyes.

STAFF ROOM AND ADJOINING AREAS

Great lighting even behind the scenes of learning areas

Even behind the scenes, there should be no break with the prevailing room and light atmosphere in an educational building. Excellent lighting quality is therefore required throughout. Last but not least: Aesthetically designed spaces encourage a culture of mindfulness and thus prevent vandalism – a common problem in additional areas. Zumtobel’s extensive portfolio offers lighting solutions for the entire school building, all from a single source. With a wide range of office lighting products, Zumtobel is also the first port of call for the staff room or secretary’s office.
