ONTERO ID
ONTERO WALLWASHER
Owner Wim Landwaart has turned his parents' fruit and vegetables shop into an award winning gourmet temple which regular customers are happy to go out of their way to visit with the use of architecture and lighting. Ontero EC spotlights with the special light color Sun gives fresh fruits a rich color and a sun-kissed brilliance while bakery products are shown to best advantage with the color GoldenBread. The color nuances of delicatessen products are rendered perfectly with the cool light color PearlWhite which also increases saturation. But it is not just the light: with their high-quality design the EC series and the ID series are also design features. In striking strato black they are mounted on suspended black tracks, emphasizing the technical impression of the open ceiling.
