The CITYCOLOR 300™ is among the world's first state-of-the-art
square projection medium power floodlights with full field color changing. The
main purpose which led to the creation of the CITYCOLOR 300™ has been the idea
of creating light shades and colors on the external walls of buildings.
Furthermore, its indoor use for places like theaters, stages and concerts as
well retail and display establishments, will be also highly appreciated by
architects and designers.
The CITYCOLOR 300™ medium power floodlight features full field color changing,
crossfades, dimming, preset programs and digital programming capabilities. The
innovative CYM (Cyan, Yellow, Magenta) color changing system has true color
dichroic filters to produce smooth color crossfades throughout the entire color
spectrum. CITYCOLOR 300™'s unique coloring capabilities open up a lot of
creative opportunities limited only by one's imagination.
The only condition for CITYCOLOR 300™'s best chromatic performance is the
projection onto preferably white or light colored walls, facades and surfaces.
When in use, its sequence of colors, which goes from pastel shades to bright
colors, creates a chromatic atmosphere around the building and gives it an
elegant or glamorous look. The CITYCOLOR 300™ enables the designer to paint a
subtle pastel wash or to create a constellation of vivid colors. The greatest
beauty of the CITYCOLOR 300™ is the creative power it puts in your hand. The
CITYCOLOR 300™'s programmed color changing floodlighting to mark various
holidays - red, white and blue for the Fourth of July; red and green for
Christmas; yellow, orange and white for Thanksgiving; different shades of green
for St. Patrick's Day and various hues of pink for Valentine's Day - just to
name a few - can surely create a positive reference of belonging and will invoke
a warm feeling toward the lighted object and its surroundings.

CREATIVE IDEAS
Companies the world over are realizing the promotional benefits of exterior
lighting. Architectural lighting helps create dreamlike atmosphere through an
ever changing flow of light and color. Multiple fixtures may be linked together
and synchronized for truly unique effects. Just imagine the possibilities. From
the modem architect who creates designs and specifications for new and exciting
buildings to a hotel concerned with drawing more attention to their building;
from an amusement park specifying more interesting lighting for their
attractions, to organizers concerned with adding that special touch to a special
event - whether a company illuminates a subtle company logo or projects a total
wash across the front of a building - outdoor color changing projectors will
soon be everywhere. And with the quality of the CITYCOLOR 300™ we lead the way.
Imagine a casino turning gold every time a lucky gambler hits the jackpot; arena
lighting pulsating when the home team scores; an outdoor concert where the
lighting fades in and out to the music; a company headquarters awashed in color
for the arrival of an important client - architectural lighting applications are
virtually endless. Imagine houses of worship, federal, state, county and
municipal buildings as well as historical buildings, landscapes and natural
sites showered with ever changing light and colors making them special and the
pride and joy of their communities. Imagine shopping malls, retail outlets,
entertainment and leisure venues. Imagine even power stations, bridges, museums
and factories! Imagine all this and much more. Again the possibilities are
limitless.
A store's evening image is most productive when illumination from within the
building and outdoor lighting work in tandem to advertise its presence. A
combination of facade illumination, signage, landscape lighting and in malls and
shopping centers, parking lot lighting identify the store and its exterior
environment. Clear messages can be sent to shoppers by controlling the relative
brightness and color of these elements. Adapting from our theatrical and
entertainment lighting technology, designers and architects can develop
customized illumination systems that boost a store's contemporary image and
reinforce its retail concept. Major stores in shopping centers can use the night
sky as a background for nighttime illumination. Programmed levels of colored
light add to the store's personality and the consumers level of expectation. A
central rotunda, for example, can glow dramatically at night to silhouette a
panorama of customers and merchandise displays. Evening shoppers will have an
invitingly color changing wash illuminated top-to-bottom view of the interior
activity. Retail architecture requires bright self-illuminated signs which
should be calibrated so that they can hold their own against powerful
pole-mounted parking lot lights or street lights. Potential customers become
lost customers when they cannot find their way or read signage because of glare
from overhead flood lighting. Personal security plays a major role in deciding
where to shop. Customers are sensitive to visual cues that effect their
perceptions of safety and well-being. Contrast ratios influence outdoor
security. If the ratio is too low, customers feel uncomfortable and will avoid
the area.
Enter the CITYCOLOR 300™. It will solve this problem very easily since it's
bright, colorful and features a variety of motion possibilities. It gives the
feeling that something is always happening, like an Architectural Happening with
its dynamic sequences to choreographed settings. It could save a programmed
cycle of colors which play across a curtain wall and masonry facing. Or inside
at the atrium projecting at the vertical surfaces. Clearly CITYCOLOR 300™'s
storefront illumination communicates merchandise appeal, produces a dynamic
light show after sunset and delivers safety for after dark shoppers.
Corporate identity can be dramatically enhanced by projecting the company's
colors on its headquarters building. Entertainment and hospitality venues i.e.
movie theaters, casinos, bowling centers and restaurants as well as retail
establishments such as shopping malls and specialty stores can perfectly stand
out in the highly crowded and extremely competitive scene of urban and suburban
buildings by using the CITYCOLOR 300™ as an effective attention getter and
visual reminder. It reminds the passerby that those buildings not only exist but
have become a focal point landmark. The CITYCOLOR 300™ is an important component
in the branding process in that it enables the use of colors and motion to
become a strong element of recognition of that particular site. By using the
already stored programs (the use of a controller is not necessary), one can
obtain shades of two or more colors by passing, quickly or slowly, through all
the intermediate positions.
