Entry DescriptionBELO NEXA is a space where beauty, art, science, and innovation converge, reflecting the Belo Group’s commitment to exploring new possibilities in design and technology. This flagship clinic reimagines the future of beauty, engaging the mind and senses. Lighting plays a pivotal role, enhancing the ultramodern ambiance while fostering a calming environment.
The reception is anchored by a media board, with lighting tuned to complement its evolving display, creating an inviting atmosphere. A sleek, pristine look is achieved with 3500K to 4000K color temperatures, delivering a fresh, state-of-the-art feel. Diffused lighting minimizes shadows on walls, offering soft illumination, while indirect floor lighting subtly guides patients through the space.
In the operating rooms, double rectangular diffused linear lights and perimeter linear wall washers reduce glare, creating a sense of spaciousness while providing the required medical lighting with minimal glare for optimal precision during procedures. By layering different types of lighting, we ensured every corner embodies functionality and elegance. At BELO NEXA, lighting enhances not only the beauty and comfort but most especially the Belo brand experience.
