The Organic Expo Plaza theatre in Seoul, South Korea, balances harmoniously with its surroundings. C&C Lightway was asked to provide the new theatre with a versatile and colorful lighting system that could be installed affordably without disturbing the space’s aesthetic equilibrium. The designers at the company accomplished this goal by positioning a collection of 39 CHAUVET Professional fixtures in the battens connected to the building’s domed roof.
From these positions, the LED fixtures are capable of covering the entire performance area in smooth even fields of light, while also offering the versatility needed to support the theatre’s diverse mix of shows.
Designed by Yuchel Shin and Geunyeol Park of C&C Lighting, the all-CHAUVET Professional system features 24 Ovation F-195FC Fresnels and 13 Ovation E-910FC ellipsoidal fixtures. Both fixture models have RGBA-Lime LED systems, which allows them to create a broad color palette in the theatre.
Also included in the theatre’s rig are two high-output Maverick MK1 Spot fixtures, which are used for specials and to create richly textured gobo patterns on stage.
“Our client wanted a LED system to cut the expense of energy consumption, as well as maintenance costs,” said Park. “They wanted to save money, and at the same time have very high-quality fixtures backed by reliable service.”
