Designed for star chef Virgilio Martinez, Nos in Lima is a restaurant of timeless class, utilizing light as a central element in creating intimacy.  Lighting concentrated at tables draws guests to share the company at the table, the food and conversation and to enjoy the room without being dominated by it – the room is a beautiful context, the experience is gastronomic and sociable.

Lux Populi developed the lighting concept in close collaboration with Taller MER of Miami and the leadership of the restaurant.  The scheme utilizes no adjustable lighting at all, allowing a long, effortless life.  Day by day, the system runs itself, fades infinitely running from one feeling to another, from an active social hub to an intimate destination over the cycle of the day and the year.
