Ireland - The Prince Bar in Athlone, Ireland, has undergone a large-scale refurbishment programme. The new design is wholly suited to the bar's active lunchtime trade but can also be revolutionized into a warm, up-beat haven in the evenings. Owner John Callanan of the Callanan Group wanted something contemporary and attractive, and knew that a good lighting design would be the key to the look and identity of the venue, so he brought in ICAN Technology, who has previously worked on similar projects all over the country.

The large Prince Bar was divided into zones, each with its own innovative décor and purpose to meet varying customer requirements. Downstairs is the carvery area, sandwich bar and a modern lounge and bar section, another small cocktail bar and various seating areas, subtly divided from the rest of the floor plan for privacy. The main fixtures that were used to create such an inspired look consisted of Pulsar's ChromaDomes and ChromaStrips which all contributed to the warm timbers, earthy tiles and dark cranberry and brown leathers. The lighting scheme was programmed to create subtle slow changes and colour tones that would highlight and enhance the Prince's architectural features; its perfect colour mixing is achieved through LED technology, which was carefully selected for its long life and low maintenance.
