Yonkers Casino
Yonkers, NY | Studio V Design + Planning
The glowing, organically shaped, 200’ long entry canopy, sits in front of a four-story high, arc of frameless glass allows a dialog between interior and exterior. The steel tube canopy structure is covered by pillows of pressure-inflated ETFE membranes. Linear RGBW LED fixtures, stem mounted above the structure, illuminate the fritted top membrane. Small, white LED downlights, integrated into the frame node, light the driveway below. Highlighting the curved glass wall, roof mounted, metal halide floodlights, curve over the façade to graze light down the veil-like fritted top edge of the glass.
