Monarch Beach Resort Video Experience

One of our resort projects, the Monarch Beach Resort, posted a video today that beautifully highlights the casual elegance of the resort. Oculus principal Archit Jain had the unique experience of working on the original construction in 2001, then again recently on the pool deck redesign with WATG.  This luxurious oceanfront hotel was designed as a Tuscan villa and named after the Monarch Butterfly Migration that the area is famous for.  The lighting was designed with low level accents and selective highlighting of the vast 172 acre landscape areas.  The result is lighting that reflects the casual but romantic atmosphere that does not detract from the natural landscape or the company that guests share the experience with.

While we love the still photography of our projects, there is something really special about a video when projects have the large scope of the Monarch Beach Resort.  Sweeping aerial views of the property and brand new pool deck mix with closeups of private and amenity spaces, giving an overall feeling that a still image cannot always provide.  That combined with the light of magic hour is perfect to show off our lighting design, which is obviously a bonus.  Please enjoy the video below!
