Located on Barcelona\u2019s famed Pla\u00e7a de les Gl\u00f2ries Catalanes, the Gates Hotel<\/a> occupies a prime location on Avenida Diagonal near the landmark Torre Agbar skyscraper.<\/p>\n

The Light Squad Studio<\/a> recently designed and carried out the new lighting project for both the Gates<\/a>\u2019 lobby and terrace, seamlessly co-mingling historical and modern references to the thriving metropolis.<\/p>\n

Natural materials like marble, brass and walnut abound, lend a rich, earthy ambience, while luxe upholstery in jewel tones is juxtaposed with the neutral walkways.<\/p>\n

Regarding the illumination system, the lighting experts sought to create an elegant modern look for the loft-like lobby and established different accent spots across the long and diaphanous area to easily guide the guest throughout the space.<\/p>\n

At one end, a cozy seating area flanked by dark wood cabinetry and bookshelves is defined by Vibia\u2019s Palma<\/strong><\/a>. Designed by Antoni Arola<\/a>, Palma connects lighting and vegetation with a striking pendant that appears to float in mid-air.<\/p>\n

Suspended at different heights from a nearly imperceptible cable and coupled with lush, cascading greenery, the composition of blown-glass globes recalls an ancient hanging garden. Positioned near an oversized potted palm, it creates interior landscape that nods to nature and enhances the hotel\u2019s organic, relaxed sensibility.<\/p>\n

Palma<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s LED-powered illumination casts a warm glow of wraparound illumination, perfect for the subdued, library-like setting.<\/p>\n
