Martin Professional delivers for Daejeon centre
- Details
Opened in October of 2003, the Daejeon Arts Centre has brought a new horizon of culture and arts to the city of Daejeon. Housed in a five-story building across a property size of 100,000sq.m, the centre features four premier event and meeting spaces, including the large-scale Art Hall, Ensemble Hall, Conventional Hall as well as outdoor amphitheatre.
Beyond hosting a wide range of productions such as theatre and opera performances, Daejeon Arts Centre also offers a Music Academy and arts cultural programme, which are designed to inspire and educate the future generations on performing arts. To enhance the 1,546-seat Art Hall, Hansam System provided a Martin Professional lighting solution.
“The client wanted to replace their existing lamp lighting with energy-efficient LED lighting units. They wanted LED fixtures that produce a balanced light beam from the center to the edge of the stage with a low failure rate, considering the heat generated during operation,” said Taehan Kim of Hansam System. “We used the Martin ERA 800 Performance LED fixture because of its exceptional performance, flexibility and price.”
“After seeing the ERA 800 Performance during a dance show by Daejeon Metropolitan Dance Company, we were impressed,” said Hun Chung, lighting director at Daejeon Arts Centre. “With this installation, we have become the first art centre or theatre to introduce and operate the ERA 800 Performance in Korea. Harman products will undoubtedly help us maintain a standard of excellence across all aspects of our events and deliver superior lighting and ambiance.”
“The Daejeon Arts Centre has been carefully planned to provide an exceptional theatre experience,” said Ramesh Jayaraman, VP & GM Harman Professional Solutions, APAC. "We would like to thank our partner Hansam System for selecting Martin solutions, introducing ERA 800 Performance to Korea and redefining lighting in the centre.”
