Location: Melbourne, Australia
Client: Crown Plaza Melbourne
Completion date: 2012
The Crowne Plaza Melbourne has two main parts to its lobby; a relatively low-ceiling area flanked by the main entrance, the reception desk, the concierge desk and a lounge; and a secondary area linking the ground floor with upper and lower levels by way of stairs and adjacent escalators.
This forms a major junction between the entrance and the guest rooms, restaurants, cafes and other hotel amenities.
It is this area that was fitted with about 150 MR16 halogen down lights rated at 50 Watts of power and various beam angles. These lights were long earmarked for replacement with a suitable drop in technology that would serve to improve the quality of light, increase the longevity of luminaires and reduce the total system energy consumption.
