Brief

When this supper club restaurant, owned by restaurateur Sam Fox and renowned musician Justin Timberlake, first began its journey, it was clear it needed the right partners for the job. VISO worked in collaboration with AvroKO and GoodShop Manufacturies to pay homage to the 19th century supper clubs, incorporating Art Deco style and elegance.

Client Need

Each level of this bar and restaurant has its own style. With a project this large it required an established brand that fully understands lighting and has the expertise to design-engineer and manufacture with skill. As well, with feature lighting installation that spans across the full ceiling, from fabrication to installation, it required complete coordination and precise detailing.

Challenges

The feature lighting installation involved multiple parts, one being the collection of 65 light boxes that fit on a custom framework. Spanning across approximately 50ft, this light fixture needed to incorporate a system to allow for ease of maintenance. This resulted in VISO design-engineering a way that allowed for parts to be replaced instead of the whole thing at a time. This attention to detail allowed VISO to provide the client with cost-saving solutions in the future.

The Solution: Custom Light Boxes

This impressive install has 65 light boxes in a chrome metal finish that are fastened to the ceiling. Connecting them is a custom oak wood frame in a custom colour that allows for easy access to each of the light boxes that slide out accordingly. As well, the multi-facetted interior of the light boxes create a dramatic light display for diners below.

Dimensions:

Side A Length: 246.5" / 6261mm
Side B Length: 193" / 4902mm
Width: 138" / 3505mm
Individual Light Box Length: 23.63" / 600mm

The Solution: Custom Chandelier

In between the light boxes, above the central bar area, the domed ceiling suspends a grand, 3-tier LED chandelier. This eye-catching piece has an antique brass finish and central ribbed frosted white acrylic diffuser. Surroundeding each of the tiers are decorative chains that are made up of amber beads that pick up on the 2700K lighting for enhanced dining experience.

The chains have two variating lengths, 138 large units and 160 small units, surrounding the frame and LED light within.
