Rodrigo Molina of Light Moxion created the new system, using a lighting design fashioned by Michael Meacham of iDesign Productions (Miami) to bring more movement and energy to the popular club, which regularly showcases big name DJs from Las Vegas, New York and Europe. Molina and Meacham's plan called for 16 Rogue RH1 Hybrid and 16 Rogue R2 Beam fixtures to be installed over the dance floor and performance area.
The new lighting design is built around two concentric circular structures in the middle of the ceiling, which were positioned around a huge candelabrum/chandelier fixture. Positioned on the two circular structures, the 32 Rogue fixtures energize the club with their razor sharp beams and rapid movements.
Motorized drivers are used to change the height and tilt of the circular structures to create different layered looks during the evening. The prism layering capabilities of the Rogue RH1 Hybrid also allowed Molina and Meacham to add more depth to the club's lighting design. Haze from a pair of Amhaze II machines accentuates the impact of the Rogue beams.
"The new Rogue fixtures produce very sharp and intense beams," says Molina. "Also, from the beginning of the process, Chauvet Mexico accompanied us and gave us all the support for the extraordinary result that we have achieved. One of the valuable 'extras' that we got from them, was to put us in contact with the famous LD Michael Meacham, who drew on his international design experience to create a spectacular and immersive lighting design. Michael's sense of commitment was amazing."
