Goal: Design and oversee a complete renovation of the casino floor, gaming floor and customer service areas, including signage and integrated LED accent lighting within an aggressive timeline.
Challenge: I-5 Design required a lighting product with a flexible form factor, low long-term maintenance, and low energy consumption. They partnered with Elemental LED to help achieve the look they wanted while satisfying specification requirements. I-5 Design had previously worked with other lighting manufacturers who were often unable to fulfill quick orders. Elemental LED was able to meet their 12-week implementation deadline with extensive inventory held in their Emeryville, CA distribution center.
Solution: One of the products I-5 Design selected was FLUID VIEW 12V LED Tape Light, part of the Diode LED product line manufactured by Elemental LED. They chose FLUID VIEW primarily for these features:
- High 80+ CRI for richer, more aesthetically-pleasing natural colors
- 2700K CCT (correlated color temperature) to produce a warm white light that is easy on the eyes
- Dimmable, allowing for ultimate control of the brightness inside the casino
Since this tape light is field-cuttable and versatile, it was easily installed and featured throughout the casino, most prominently lighting the under counter areas at the bar, and overhead circular ceiling designs.
Elemental LED Value: One of the reasons I-5 Design partnered with Elemental LED was the responsive customer support. Faced with a 15,000 square foot remodel within the time frame of 12 weeks, I-5 Design relied on Elemental LED help advise on the best lighting product to meet their needs and deliver it within the timeline. Elemental LED manufactures and stocks inventory, including the FLUID VIEW 12V LED Tape Light, in the United States, which allow for same-day shipping directly to the project site for a quick installation that fits within a project timeline.
Installation was easy and completed on schedule. I-5 Design has received a lot of positive feedback from patrons and employees of the casino. The client was so impressed with the improvement, they asked I-5 Design to return and remodel the remaining spaces including the hotel lobby, gift shop, buffet, boardroom, and conference hall. I-5 Design continues to work with Elemental LED as its exclusive LED lighting provider for 4 Bears Casino.
