At either end of the hotel, an additional 8 Blast Powercore, RGBW fixtures shine up from the ground. The initial plan called for Color Kinetics Blast Powercore, RGBW luminaires (7) to shine light down the hotel façade to highlight the columns. As the project expanded, they maintained a consistent design across other areas of the building, including the ends of the hotel and the casino entrances.Ĭolor Kinetics products were quickly selected for their quality optics and durability. Voss Lighting began working on an initial lighting design to accentuate the architectural details of the building and maximize the effectiveness of the light by grazing the pale columns on the front of the hotel.
After completing new construction on the hotel and an additional wing of the casino, the client sought to illuminate the unlit exterior of the new building to draw attention, as well as create a fun and inviting atmosphere. Ideally situated on the Texas-Mexico border, across the Rio Grande from Piedras Negras in Coahuila, Mexico, the Kickapoo Lucky Eagle Hotel and Casino draws clientele from both sides of the border.
