Club & Bar lighting magazine - Martin

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 ceiling and wallmounted
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 modernday
lava lamp created by Alien color changing spots
projecting down through a tunnel of special lightguiding
mesh while along Kupé’s façade 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.”
