J&C Joel Embracing the night

J&C Joel supplied several specialist drapes and dressing to Sheffield’s largest nightclub when it was taken over, gutted, re-vamped and re-launched as Embrace by Brook Leisure during 2007.

The major centrepiece over the dancefloor in the club’s main 'Decuba' space is a 4000 strand fibre optic chandelier which is dressed at the top with 72 panels of Bedouin-style white polyester trevira canopy, internally lit with 8 LED PAR can fixtures.

The trevira panels are attached at the top to the lower rail of a truss rigged right in the ceiling void. At the base, they are fixed to a series of wooden battens covering the crown of the fibre optic truss, which also features a small silver 'liquid lame' border to match the curtain rigged on Decuba's back wall, fitted to a steel pipe framework.

The bar on Decuba's balcony level is styled and lit in a classic 1960's 'Happy Days' fashion. Behind this, J&C Joel supplied and rigged several drops of sumptuous, specially sourced Venetian Scroll silver embroidered black fabric.

The NY Loft, one of the club's smaller rooms, features several sets of interesting dark chocolatey brown voile fabric curtains, enhancing the intimate and exclusive feel to this bar and tabled area.

In another area, Mink - for lovers of current dance, electro and retro classics - the company supplied a set of white voile curtains for each side of a large window. This material was specially sourced, along with some white banners which are hung above the dancefloor and used for projected lighting effects.

Draping is also used to finish off Embrace's entranceway and stairwell, with lush velour cabaret curtains swagged, retro theatre-tab style, in the stairwell recesses.

The velour contains tiny flecks of silver that glint in the light, and projected images are beamed into the middle of the two recesses creating plenty of eye candy for revellers coming in to the venue.
