Automated lighting controls gradually shift the dramatic high ceiling lobby lighting from white to a vibrant blue as the evening progresses.
Radisson Blu, Mall of America
Bloomington, MN
Radisson Blu Mall of America is the prototype Radisson Blu hotel in North America, opening its doors in 2013. The sophisticated and contemporary hotel provides guests with a unique experience, in a space splashed with excitement and dramatic flair throughout.
Schuler Shook’s lighting design is a critical component of design, lending drama to the public spaces: the lobby, restaurant, bar, pool, meeting rooms, ballrooms and pre-function areas.
A variety of contemporary pendants in the restaurant are supplemented with grazing light on reclaimed wood column corners to provide high contrast and warm tones.
Public spaces throughout the hotel make use of LED light sources for energy and maintenance considerations resulting in a LEED energy compliant project.
The salt water pool is accented in luminous blue lighting for character within the space and as viewed through windows from the approaching roadway traffic.
The unique ‘business center’ features highlighted art, accent pools of downlight and a customized LED linear pendant assembly over the common use table.
The versatile ballroom features user controllable RGB perimeter wash light and custom pendants, while the prefunction areas are distinguished with pools of LED downlight and wall grazing.
