A Visit to Rudenstams Bär & Frukt – Where Light and Flavor Meet in the Apple Valley
At Rudenstams Bär & Frukt in Huskvarna, traditional farm life meets modern expression in a way that feels both authentic and well thought-out. In the charming farm shop, the cozy café, and the inviting garden, visitors are welcomed to taste, enjoy, and explore. Overlooking Lake Vättern, the business has expanded with new buildings designed with a focus on function, atmosphere, and experience. In the newly constructed spaces, lighting has taken its rightful place, with a lighting design by Hide-a-lite.
As you pull into the Rudenstams parking lot, you're immediately struck by the stunning location and the view of the glittering waters of Lake Vättern. The latest additions to the premises make a first impression of a bright and airy environment. These spaces are primarily used for conferences in both small and large rooms, with a shared dining area, and office spaces are also available for rent. Natural materials like light wood meet black contrasts in a red, barn-inspired building that frames the setting in a distinctly ”Småland style”.
Lighting at Rudenstams is an integrated part of the overall experience. Black tracklights provide both general and accent lighting. The flexible lighting setup highlights interior details like leather-covered handrails and an apple tree presented as wall art. Large windows provide ample natural daylight, further enhancing the open feel of the space.
Designing lighting for conference rooms requires a balance between functionality and flexibility. At Rudenstams, each room has a tailored setup based on its intended use. Some conference rooms use recessed LED panels that provide even, glare-free general lighting—ideal for longer meetings where visual comfort is key. Other rooms feature adjustable luminaires to allow for variation and zoning. By combining different light sources, the lighting can easily be adapted to suit various needs, whether it’s for presentations, workshops, or creative breaks.
