Seeing light in a new light

Solus Lighting LTD was hired to provide an assistant lighting designer, as well as technical support for the Philips Healthcare Mega Meeting 2012.  This four day event, held at a Disney property hotel in Orlando Florida, had everything from meetings to an awards banquet.  Solus Lighting LTD provided our skill sets in the main ballroom for the welcome ceremony, the key note speakers presentations, large group meetings as well as the awards banquet and party to close the conference.

Many of the brands that Philips owns were represented in the lighting rig, including Vari-Lite, Color Kinetics and Strand Lighting products.  You may be thinking, "what can healthcare and lighting possibly have in common?".  Well, not only can the high quality lighting that Philips companies provide greatly reduce stress and tension associated with admission to hospitals it can also provide therapy and healing.  Philips is bringing to the forefront that not only do LED lights save power, but they can also provide a process of healing.  Patients that are confined to a room or a floor of a hospital can be put to ease with LED lighting fixtures that replicate the 24 hour cycle of natural light.  Philips is also working to provide an LED fixture that can teach and relearn basic human skills that may have been lost due to a physical life changing event.

Please take a moment to visit the Philips Healthcare website to learn more about the great things they are doing with lighting worldwide.

Grand Pacific Hotel inaugural bridal soirée

Solus Lighting LTD was honored to be a part of the Grand Pacific Hotel's first ever bridal show.  Held in the main lobby of the historic Grand Pacific Hotel located in Grand Pacific Junction, the bridal show was an excellent opportunity for us to show how we can transform any space.  Many of the brides we got to interact with have already selected the hotel as the site of their reception.  Solus Lighting LTD offered them the opportunity to see what light can do in the space first hand.  "Not only did the neutral tones of the venue allow color to show remarkably well, the uplights showcased the character of this historic venue", says Lead Designer Maureen Patterson.

Check out some before and after shots below, as well as on our website and Facebook fan page.  More information about this magnificent hotel can be found on the Grand Pacific Hotel website.

Solus Lighting LTD moves into the political realm

Solus Lighting LTD was recently hired to light the official Vote No on Issue 2 Watch Party.  Held on election night, the watch party was for all types of union workers to assemble in one place to watch the results of the election,  Solus Lighting LTD provided up lighting around the room in the official Issue 2 blue as well as the stage lighting.  The stage lighting was of particular importance for this special event, as the watch party was covered on all local news stations here in Cleveland, Ohio as well as on the Ohio News Network.  Check out some pictures below, as well as on our website and our Facebook page!

A night to remember

Solus Lighting LTD was pleased to provide the décor lighting for a b'nai mitzvah this past weekend.  Ninety percent of the lighting elements consisted of LED lighting fixtures.  There were sculptures around the edge of the room that were lit with led strip lights.  Other elements included under table lighting, which were lit with wireless led fixtures.  Wireless led fixtures is something that we haven't talked about too much here on the blog.  The advantages of wireless fixtures, is that there is no power or data cable running to these fixtures.  So when a client wants their spandex covered tables to glow and change color, there is no better choice than a wireless led fixture -- no cables, and no heat generated from the light source.  Another element the decorator used was six 10' tall white corrugated plastic columns.  These columns were used as set pieces for the dj booth on the stage.  We, again, used the wireless led fixtures inside the bottom of the columns for amazing bold colors that changed through out the night.  Check out some pics below.  More pictures can be found on our website and Facebook page.  We have also posted some videos of the fixtures in action on our You Tube page.
