Nando’s Mafikeng – Lighting Design Overview

The main objective of the lighting project at Nando’s Mafikeng was to create a welcoming atmosphere that elevates the dining experience while maintaining functionality and energy efficiency.

The client emphasized the need for an intimate and moody ambiance, achieved through carefully selected lighting techniques and fixtures.

To fulfill this vision, a combination of recessed lighting, strip lighting, and outdoor lighting was employed.

  • Meru – Decorative lighting to enhance visual interest.

  • Kruger – Durable and functional lighting for the Back-of-House areas.
