Austria - On 10 December 2004, The Empire Club opened in Vienna, bringing a new focus for the Viennese 'in crowd'. With Empire venues across Austria, owner Joachim Natschlager brought in Kraftwerk, who have worked on Empire and other projects all over the country, to equip the new venue. The Empire club is subdivided into three plains; the main dance area, a VIP bar where special guests can have a specified seating area, and the lounge, where guests can relax.

The main fixtures used to create the interior look consisted of 51 ChromaPanels (600mm) in total, of which 25 were used to create the chessboard effect on the ceiling, 10 were used as backlighting and enhancement for Cola text images behind the bar and 16 were used to highlight the text of Heineken and Eristoff. 40 Chroma MR16 WallWash fixtures are used to wash and highlight the walls surrounding the seating area and a further two ChromaFloods were built into two standing tables made from stained glass. Depending on the theme of the night, the dynamic lighting effects are used to highlight the interior features within the venue with complimentary or contrasting colours.
