We completed a café linear lighting renovation project last year, and the overall results and client feedback were very positive. Here’s a brief project summary.
Project background
Application: Café bar counter and ceiling linear lighting
Goal: Create a warm, layered atmosphere while ensuring sufficient task lighting
Solution & products
LED strip: 24V COB strip, high CRI (≥90)
Installation: Recessed aluminum profile with opal diffuser
Color temperature: 3000K
Final result:The lighting appeared continuous with no visible dots. Brightness across the bar area was even, and the client was satisfied with both ambiance and functionality.
Challenges encountered
Initial aluminum profile depth was insufficient, requiring power adjustment
Local glare issues near reflective surfaces, resolved through angle fine-tuning
Lessons learned
1.Prioritize CRI and glare control in commercial spaces
2.Confirm aluminum profile dimensions before installation
3.Choose color temperature based on function, not preference alone
Overall, attention to detail made a significant difference in the final outcome.
