The Real Markthalle in Krefeld opened at the end of 2016 with a total area of over 11,500 square metres. Real's new "Food Lover" concept with an extensive food experience and numerous small stalls is reminiscent of a traditional market hall. The lighting emphasises the individuality of the individual stalls and manufactories. While the market stalls were given functional lighting with spotlight systems, decorative lighting with individually selected pendant luminaires was used in the counter area, among others. The RIDI LINIA continuous row system was used here to visually soften the enormous length of the main aisles and introduce a structure that facilitates orientation. The continuous rows with the LINIA-FLAT LED gear trays run at a slight angle both horizontally and vertically, resulting in deliberate overlaps between the light lines. The arrangement of the continuous rows guides customers from the entrance area into the store to the individual product areas. The LUPO spotlight modules integrated into the strip lighting can be used to create accents at selected locations, while a track-mounted spotlight system was chosen for the actual shelf walls to provide excellent illumination of the goods. Floodlights provide uniform ambient lighting, while the LUPO accent spotlights create individual highlights. VLDF-F linear luminaires arranged in track provide general lighting for the refrigerated cabinets. While all other areas of the store are illuminated with a colour temperature of 3000 Kelvin, this area with its cool 5000 Kelvin can be seen from afar and makes it easier to find your way around the large, spacious store. In the cosmetics area, radiant track lighting emanates from the consultation counter, with spotlights illuminating all areas of the very freely arranged, small-scale world of goods. In the fashion area, LUPO and KARO spotlights in track provide lighting accents.
