Project Highlight: Hilton Sydney Lobby & Marble Bar

Updated: May 28

When Hilton Sydney needed to upgrade the lighting in both its grand lobby and heritage-listed Marble Bar, flexibility was key. With work happening in a live hotel environment, traditional wired systems were off the table. That’s where Casambi wireless control, delivered by Afterglow Controls, made all the difference.



Hilton Sydney’s lighting upgrade called for a flexible, wireless solution—Afterglow Controls delivered with Casambi smart lighting control, ideal for live hotel and heritage environments.

In the Lobby:

Working alongside Alland Group, Shape, and WSP, the lobby installation was staged over night shifts, with no disruption to guests. Casambi’s wireless mesh allowed seamless on-the-fly commissioning and real-time problem solving.


In the Marble Bar:

A heritage refurbishment meant reusing existing cabling. Casambi integrated effortlessly – no rewiring needed. The bar managers now run their own lighting scenes, preferring a moody, low-lit vibe.


Key Features:


  • Casambi modules + control documentation

  • Thanos touchscreen interfaces

  • No mains wiring = fast, flexible install

  • Full control via mobile and wall panels


Smart, elegant, and built for complex spaces – this is lighting control that adapts to the project, not the other way around.
