Harman solution for Singapore ballroom
- Details
Pan Pacific Hotels Group operates upscale hotels, resorts and serviced suites throughout Asia Pacific and North America for the redesigned 800-capacity ballroom Pan Pacific Singapore wanted to create an immersive and customizable lighting experience for thematic weddings and events. Pan Pacific Singapore hired Mynalight to design and deploy a LED lighting installation in the ballroom ceiling that could complement the elegant colour schemes, table settings and flower arrangements of the hotel’s wedding themes.
"Lighting the ballroom for Pan Pacific Singapore was an ambitious project, which we approached in our uniquely collaborative style,” said Ms. Yaeko Hashimoto, principal lighting designer, Mynalight. “After much scrutiny and discussion with our experts, we concluded that Martin lighting fixtures would be ideal for the media effect ceiling they were looking for. It not only produces a spectacular lighting design, but turns the ballroom into a unique experience."
Mynalight decided to highlight the ballroom’s abstract, coral-inspired ceiling design by mounting 7,120 VC-Dot 1 creative LED pixels along the intersecting lines that divide the recessed portions of the ceiling. The VC-Dot 1 system form a network of more than 7,120 individual controllable LED media pixels, which are capable of displaying synchronized video effects in harmony via the Martin Professional P3 system controller.
The integrated P3 powerport 1500 provides both power and data for the VC-Dot 1 with the compact VC-feeders, driving each VC-Dot string in daisy chain methodology - setting up the system is a breeze. Martin Rush MH 1 Profile Plus fixtures provide supplemental lighting to the space, and are capable of complimenting any colour scheme or effect with dual gobo and colour wheels.
"We were thrilled to have futuristic gear such as Martin for our ballroom,” said Vincent Choo, director of technical services & project management, Pan Pacific Singapore. “The recently installed creative element in our revamped ballroom illuminates the area effectively and enables quick, effective alterations.”
