BiZBash Award Winner: Best Lighting Design

April 13, 2005

Luring guests into the 100th anniversary celebration of Cartier’s Santos watch, JKLD Inc. used lighting to pave the entry, projecting gobos of the luxury brand’s logo every 15 feet. Inside the main event space, the ever-changing lighting included strips of LED lighting on two walls, while the other two displayed large projections. LED lights were also rigged under the bar and tables. The projection walls eventually came down, revealing a gallery of watches that included floating glass displays that doubled as projection surfaces.
