SALT LAKE CITY (December 2024) – YESCO, the 104-year-old company known for creating, repairing and maintaining internationally recognizable signs, announces it has successfully completed the top of building lighting installation at the Opus Apartment Tower located at 3545 Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles’ Korea Town. This project, which enhances the 22-story apartment tower within the iconic skyline, features color-changing LED lighting bringing dynamic, programmable visual displays to the building’s facade.
The project included the installation of 196 feet of Colorkinetics Graze Compact Powercore Intellihue lighting products on the south tower of the building. The custom fixtures were mounted on customer-provided U-channel metal trays, which were pre-cut and pre-drilled for easy installation.
The lighting system can be programmed remotely through Wi-Fi, including remote control access via cell phone, using a Pharos Lighting Playback Controller, allowing the tower to showcase a variety of vibrant and programmable shows. The lighting system can also display shows in support of holidays, local events and regional sports teams, including the University of Southern California and University of California, Los Angeles, which can be viewed from miles away.
“We are thrilled to have partnered with Jamison Properties once again to bring the Opus Apartment Tower’s lighting vision to life,” said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO. “Our team’s expertise ensured the tower’s lighting installation not only met but also exceeded expectations, enhancing the building’s prominence in the Korea Town skyline.”
