The rapidly growing hotel chain citizenM recently opened  two new hotels in Paris. The 175 guest room counting hotel Paris La Défense is situated in Europe’s largest purpose built business district. citizenM La Défense offers a lobby where you can find a bar, bakery, living rooms and multiple meeting rooms (societyM). The entrance is on the ground floor where a coffee bar (coffeeM) is situated.

TDE-lighttech has supplied all guest room lighting and public area lighting. The guest room lighting consists of downlights, pendant, cove and RGB lighting and is controlled through our custom LC16CM LED driver which has been fitted inside a room controller from Saia Burgess.  The public areas are fitted with a wide range of fixtures such as 230V design fixtures, downlights, track lighting, cove lighting and accent lighting. Our IZI-Link system has been used for all cabinet lighting and down lights. These products are all individually configurable and has made the installation easier, quicker and more cost effective.

All public areas are controlled with Pharos Architectural Controls and can be externally monitored, controlled and updated.
