Wynn Las Vegas continues its excellence in luxury design with the distinctive new nightclub, Intrigue, which debuted at the resort on April 28.
The 14,000-square-foot venue designed by Architectural Digest Top 100 Designer, Roger Thomas, and his team at Wynn Design and Development, marks a departure from the resort’s other popular nightlife concepts to provide a more intimate and exclusive experience for guests.
“Being asked to reinvent a nightclub in the nightclub capital of the world is one of the most exciting assignments any designer can get,” said Thomas. “It’s been a thrill for our entire team to unleash our imaginations and have the opportunity to define new heights of glamour, drama and comfort.”
Recognizing that the best background for light is white, Thomas and his design team chose Intrigue’s light cream palette. Lighting design by John Lyons Systems creates a dramatic and sensual atmosphere utilizing the latest in lighting, laser and projection technology. The technology package allows the room to completely transform, painting the venue with colors, textures and patterns which change frequently so the club looks and feels different each visit. Intrigue’s light interior also positions the venue as a bright and stunning space for daytime events.
Intrigue features 60 banquettes each designed for style and comfort with elevated backs that allow for two-tier seating. Two bars flank the dance floor that is constructed from an exclusive flooring material also used throughout the club so guests can dance virtually everywhere.
The primary focal point in the club is a 94-foot waterfall on the 1,183 square-foot patio. Water cascades down into a lagoon where an impressive fountain and pyrotechnic show helps to create an exciting and kinetic energy in the outdoor space. The white decking and furniture provide the perfect backdrop to the extravagant lighting. Two alcoves carved into the mountainside, one on each side of the waterfall, evoke drama and sense of whimsy with chandeliers hung at conversational height and sculptural Harry Bertoia chairs. The patio includes a full bar set into the mountain.
Intrigue features a private club-with-in-the-club. Up to 75 invited guests can enjoy elevated access within this private enclave. The private room is lined with white liquor lockers created out of stitched leather trunks. Over 1,000 vinyl records line the wall behind the DJ table. A two-way mirror behind the private bar allows guests a glimpse into the main club. Deluxe and chic in every detail, the social media-free room is a quiet and comfortable respite from the club’s main room which is quickly accessible through hidden bookcase doors.
