Orleans Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, NV
Project Overview
At the bustling Orleans Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, architecture and atmosphere converge to create a striking arrival experience. To highlight the grandeur of its main entrance, the design team selected Belfer MQ2502 Marquee Lighting – Wet Location fixtures to frame the exterior portico with precision and elegance.
Installed continuously around the canopy perimeter, the MQ2502 system defines the architectural geometry of the entrance with a consistent, luminous rhythm that enhances both visibility and visual identity. Designed for wet-location environments, these fixtures deliver long-lasting performance under exposure to heat, moisture, and intense desert conditions—perfect for Las Vegas’s demanding climate.
The project demonstrates Belfer’s ability to merge architectural form and reliability into a cohesive lighting solution for iconic, high-traffic spaces.
