Metal column covers and other finishes with backlighting connect the interior and exterior and contribute to Innovativo Design Inc.’s design for Sahara Las Vegas Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

For the outside and continuing into interior of the hotel lobby and casino in the 5,574 m² (60,000 sf) building, Innovativo Design specified 50 total aluminum column covers. Additionally, aluminum wall panels clad an entrance to, and backwalls in, an interior space in the casino. There are 18 columns on the exterior and
32 columns inside the building. Móz Designs supplied the column covers and cladding.

At the porte cochere, there are 10 7 m (24 ft) tall, round, tapered columns with a Skinz finish which looks like wood grain. Diagonal reveals on the bases of the columns are backlit by color-changing LED lighting.

Surrounding a water feature in the porte cochere, there are four 10 m (34 ft) tall, round columns with a 610 mm (24 in.) diameter. The column covers are finished in Light Champagne and Current Engravings, a pattern that looks like water.

At both sides of the main entrance, on four square structural columns, two of which have integrated video displays, aluminum covers finished in Engravings Current Light Champagne.

Inside the building, there are 13 5 m (16 ft) tall, round and square columns with aluminum column covers finished Engravings Current Coarse Light Champagne Gloss.

Additionally, there are five 5 m (16 ft) tall, round columns with aluminum column covers finished in Classic Khaki Coarse overlayed with #8 polished stainless steel.
