LED lighting provides a visual treat both inside and outside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Biloxi. ![]()
The newly restored Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Biloxi, Mississippi, opened its doors on July 7, 2007 after suffering extensive damages from Hurricane Katrina. The revamped hotel is known for its collection of authentic music memorabilia and, now, for its sensational lighting effects enabled By Color Kinetics LED solutions and technologies.
Lighting designer Jon Champelli, President of SHOP 12, was tasked to capture the kinetic energy of the Hard Rock and create visual interest throughout the hotel. Champelli enlisted the help of 4Wall Entertainment, a leading international provider of lighting systems for theatrical, architectural, and Marketing applications.
Together they selected the best light fixtures to meet their needs, and LED sources proved ideal. Aesthetically, they can generate millions of colors and dynamic effects without gels, filters or mechanical scrollers. Operationally, they require very little maintenance and produce little to no radiated Heat. Color Kinetics LED illumination systems thus provided the perfect solution to meet their criteria, and the vibrant resulting colors and effects are everywhere!

Center Bar The raised Center Bar features a radical design with metal panels radiating from the center of the bar, which are reminiscent of spokes on a wheel. Each metal panel is streaked with color using ColorBlast? 12 Powercore fixtures. The Center Bars visual focal point Features Color Kinetics iColor? Module FX, a 6-inch (15 cm) square modular unit with singularly controllable points of light, at the middle. The iColor Module FX panels display intricate patterns, images, animation and video on the 15-foot by 25-foot (4.5 X 12 m) LED wall.
Champelli created video content including a constantly changing wave of colors, and he programmed the display to jibe with the other design elements throughout the bar and hotel. The colors on the wheel spokes are chosen to complement and in other times contrast with the LED wall, Said Champelli. Combined, these lights give the Center Bar a pulse and a tempo and establish a system to keep things moving without being a distraction.

Control and data distribution were critical to the success of the project.
