HLB’s scope of work for this state-of-the-art facility included the lobbies and pre-function areas, a signature ballroom, meeting rooms, public art projects, and the exterior lighting design for the façade, plazas, surrounding walkways, and park transition.
The folding planes of a 5.5 acre “living roof” and a multitude of spatial demands inspired the team to integrate smart lighting solutions into compelling forms in a variety of scales responsive to the architectural expressions. Fifteen-meter-high sculptural light markers with integral color changing LEDs identify the city edge. The waters' edge brings a more contemplative scale, with simpler, more frequently spaced luminaires. The interior lobby creates a lantern-effect by washing illumination on to the ceiling and walls visible through the transparent volume. Custom glowing ballroom chandeliers express the building’s interior and exterior connectivity.
