Shop window
Everybody is vying for attention. But with the proper lighting, your shop window can stand out in the crowd. Light can be directed exactly where you want it, to offer highlights and texture. Also, by applying higher lighting levels to your display and avoiding dark rear walls in the background, you can avoid your window turning into a mirror. Dynamic lighting can create stopping power, support seasonal themes, make shoppers curious, and make them want to enter. www.philips.com/shoplighting

\\ Reference project Markenstore


Location: Georgmarienhtte, Germany Lighting Design: Sabine Mai (MaiLight) Markenstore is a shop-in-shop department store. The challenge is to create a dynamic ambiance which provides sufficient flexibility to adjust to seasons and collections. A lighting solution was implemented based on Philips Ambiscene concept. The lighting changes following the Seasons scenario in AmbiScene: fresh yellows and greens in spring, orange and reds in summer, deeper reds in autumn, and predominantly white in winter. The speed of change also adapts to the normal rhythm of the day: slowly during opening hours, but faster when the stored is closed, drawing more attention to the store. Owner Beate Niemann: Since we started using flexible light in the shop window, lots more passers-by stop outside to have a look. They are attracted by the play with various light colours and effects.

Counter & cashiers desk


Queues at the cashiers desk means you are doing great business, but they can also frighten away potential customers. Shoppers prefer not to have to wait in line, becoming bored and frustrated. An ingenious use of dynamic lighting can provide a visual distraction, keeping shoppers entertained as they wait. Carefully positioned accessory racks illuminated to attract attention can persuade shoppers to make additional impulse purchases. And the counter itself should be illuminated so that the staff can work comfortably and avoid any errors in transactions. www.philips.com/shoplighting

Racks, shelves & displays


Your shop is a stage and your products are the leading actors. Our eyes tend to follow the light, so a careful balance of accent and contrast can prove invaluable to focusing the shoppers attention. Accent lighting needs to be flexible, allowing a repositioning of the light as the products and collections change. Racks and shelves can be lit from lighting in the ceiling or by lighting directly on the shelves. And the use of the correct colour temperature warm light for, say, leather goods, and cool tones for jeans or suits ensures that your merchandise is always shown in the very best light. www.philips.com/shoplighting
