Hotel digital signage creates four-story architectural installation

Towering four-story video wall features BrightSign digital signage media players and Planar Systems displays.

November 20, 2014

Display and digital signage technology provider Planar Systems Inc. and digital signage media player provider BrightSign LLC today announced their recent collaboration to create the world's tallest Planar Mosaic architectural video wall at a Miami-area hotel. The installation was unveiled in early November at the hotel as part of its grand opening festivities (a Planar spokeswoman said she could not identify the hotel). This new hotel is situated in Surfside, Florida, between Miami Beach and Bal Harbour.

Florida-based CMA was commissioned to install a towering four-story video wall in the reception area and decided to feature BrightSign digital signage media players and Planar Systems displays.

"With a high-profile installation like this, it's important that the deployment be artistically breathtaking with perfect synchronization and 24/7 reliability – that's why we chose BrightSign and Planar," said Cesar Cifuentes, founder and president of CMA, in the announcement. "The beautiful Planar Mosaic displays work seamlessly with BrightSign's players to create a finished product that perfectly complements the look of the hotel."

The hotel's glass walls make the video wall visible from the street as well as the lobby, making a spectacle of the 20 55-inch displays placed at a 90-degree angle to one another in a herringbone pattern.

"Our vision for architectural video walls is well demonstrated in this impressive hospitality installation," said Jennifer Davis, vice president of marketing at Planar Systems. "By consulting with the client in the first stages of the design process, CMA's installation has become a focal point visible from the street, and is destined to be an iconic, instantly-recognizable fixture in the model Miami architectural landscape."
