The Rose Hotel
Hilton – Santa Clara
Focused on the business traveler, these conference and restaurant facilities were designed for long days and extended trips. The installations met the new, mandated reductions in the California Energy Code without compromising aesthetic goals by deploying a Public Area lighting control system combined with energy effective fixture selections.
Sheraton Grand – Julia Morgan Marketplace Renovation
The introduction of a new 500 room hotel was combined with the renovation of a Historic Marketplace designed by architect Julia Morgan.
The Historic Renovation work creates a new interpretation of the marketplace while paying homage to the architecture and the architect. The lighting in this area is both highly suggestive of the marketplace theme and functional in its approach to lighting the 3 story atrium space. The atrium with its uplit open wooden trusses and a large scale glass panel montage is bathed in glowing light. The meeting rooms, ballrooms, bars and restaurants all adjoin this space.
The downtown location adjacent to the Sacramento Convention Center and the newly opened Esquire Plaza corporate offices targets the needs of the business traveler. The interior spaces are highly visible through the restored marketplace exterior. They beckon as a comfortable refuge from a long day spent at the convention center. The new tower adjoining the marketplace is fitted with articulated canopies at the entry and glass openings
