Le Grand Café Rouge in Barcelona

Blu2Light Installation
Le Grand Café Rouge is a modern French brasserie designed by the renowned French architect Odile Decq and directed by Michelin-starred chef Romain Fornell and located in the luxurious Antares building in Barcelona. Its architecture, blend of traditional and contemporary atmosphere and innovative design create a distinctive and authentic personality. This, together with the cuisine typical of this restaurant concept, defines the special character and philosophy of the place.
These same concepts and perspectives are the ones that Geometría Viva, SL y Salvador Gómez Fuentes have used for the manufacture and design of the restaurant's luminaire.
The venue's lighting consists of a total of 25 pendant luminaires including linear LEDs, spotlights and bulbs that dim to suit the mood required at any given time and occasion.
The luminaire is controlled by Vossloh-Schwabe's Blu2Light control system, allowing scenes to be selected from the iPad installed in the restaurant kitchen.
With this innovative system, based on Bluetooth technology, and the LINA Touch app, the desired ambience is created for each occasion, allowing different lighting scenes to be set.
Why Blu2Light as a restoration control system?
The system is very user-friendly, allowing staff to interact with the control system easily and intuitively using the LiNA Touch app via an iPad, for example by dimming the light. For maximum ease of use, the desired settings can be configured in advance.
The Blu2Light control system guarantees an excellent cost-benefit ratio by being highly efficient and always providing the desired functionality.
In addition, its easy implementation and configuration make it the ideal and indispensable system (reduced wiring between components, etc.).
Highlights of the installation
- Easy control via iPad
- Scenes of different brightness in each luminaire, adapted according to the time of day for greater visual comfort
- Sustainable and energy-efficient LEDs
- High efficiency system
The Products
The project consists of 25 pendant luminaires located throughout the restaurant, where each of these 25 pendant luminaires consists of between 4 and 6 luminaires in linear, spotlight or bulb format, all of them dimmable by DALI.
The Blu2Light control system consists of a Blu2Light Connect ME node, located in each of the 25 luminaires and powered by the DALI power supply with up to 15 DALI addresses. Each of the Blu2Light Connect ME nodes allows each of the 4 or 6 luminaires to be individually controlled.
From a tablet, located in the kitchen, the property can select the lighting scene according to the time of day or event to be held (day, evening, dinner, night, party...) and the different luminaires change their brightness to adapt to the event.
