Kupé, inspired by contemporary big city club trends, is a luxurious place to warm up before a concert or cool down after a long night of dancing. At fi rst glance it becomes obvious that lighting is what makes Kupé unique with large architectural ceiling and wall- mounted projection canopies awash in rich color from Cyclo fl uorescent color changers overlaid with decorative images from Mania effect lights. Recessed sky domes backlit with Cyclo luminaires create an uplifting and spacious feel even though the lounge sits on the ground fl oor of a multi-fl oor hotel. Other unique lighting elements include a type of modern- day lava lamp created by Alien color changing spots projecting down through a modern tunnel of special light- guiding mesh while along Kupé’s façade home windows a row of recessed Cyclo wallwashers color the length of the space and provide a hint of what awaits inside. “Our philosophy is to offer our guests an experience that is customized to them specifi cally. Therefore we focus differently on the various spaces. Guests should feel as if the venue has been created especially for them.” “Lighting sets the mood. It can go from a lounge feeling early in the night to clubbing mayhem at primetime and back. This can either make people feel more welcome in a lounge setting or make the party even wilder later on. This pays off in entrance and bar income with our customers staying for a longer period of time.”
