Heinen en Hopman – Bunschoten
For the company restaurant of Heinen en Hopman, we designed and crafted several custom Light Forest installations. Light Forest was chosen for its Dutch origin and its connection to the industrial style.
Hopman RuimteMakers, the interior architect and constructor of the project, worked with a color scheme of black-blue, sapphire blue, red-brown, and ruby red. Above the restaurant bar, a large blue variant in RAL 5003 was installed. The lighting installation follows the curved shape of the bar and extends subtly towards the wall.
Above the buffet, a more spaciously arranged composition of Light Forest in red (RAL 3003) was placed. Additionally, two compact wall-mounted variants, positioned next to the founding year of Heinen en Hopman, were integrated into a curved wall. Thanks to the modular design of the lighting system, this was seamlessly executed.
Before custom production begins, Light Forest is always meticulously drawn and developed in 3D. This allows the client to visualize the entire composition within their space. We provide both technical drawings with precise measurements and realistic renderings in advance. After the full composition of Light Forest has been approved, the production process begins in Aptum’s workshop, and Aptum installs Light Forest on-site.
‘The collaboration went excellently and was a great addition to our design process. The communication was smooth, and all actions were carried out as agreed. The installation and custom design of the Light Forest is truly craftsmanship! Love it!’ – quote customer
