LAS VEGAS, NV – November 18, 2008 – AC Coin & Slot is pleased
to announce the completed installation of all slot bases and custom casino signage
for the 170,000 square-foot Snoqualmie Casino. The property, which opened on
November 6, 2008, features the debut installation of AC Coin & Slot’s
custom hybrid slot bases and state-of-the-art LED lighting technology among its
more than 1,700 slots and high-end décor.
“We sought a vendor that would match our dedication to quality and our
attention to detail and are extremely pleased with the work AC Coin & Slot
has done,” said Tim Barker, Vice President of Casino Operations for Snoqualmie. “It
was a pleasure to work with them on this project.”
Working closely with Snoqualmie Casino executives, Las Vegas architectural
design firm Bergman, Walls & Associates, and interior designer Yates-Silverman,
AC Coin & Slot designed and installed over 1700 custom slot bases, ATM & Ticket
Redemption Kiosk enclosures, and more than 20 custom casino signs. The project
was designed to ensure that all tones, finishes, and design elements flowed
seamlessly with the property’s subdued earth tone color scheme. All bases
and signage effectively carried the Snoqualmie tribal theme throughout the
establishment and helped to define and brand the property with references to
specific tribal images.
“We are honored to have played such an integral role in bringing this
distinctive, first-class casino to life,” said Nat Holt, Director of
Casino Supply for AC Coin & Slot. “Our dedicated team continuously
strives to fulfill the unique vision of each property with our custom products.
This level of commitment has created a truly one-of-a-kind experience for Snoqualmie
patrons.”
Advanced LED backlighting was used in end-panel designs so as to provide extended
life and low power-draw while meeting LEED certifications. LED lighting also
provided a highly-adaptable light source for AC Coin & Slot designers to
create truly distinctive images that accurately reflect the design intentions
of Snoqualmie owners, architects, and interior designers. Game and ticket redemption
signs took into consideration various destinations on the floor and corresponding
traffic patterns to provide visual balance and consistent branding of the property.
Several hand-blown glass signs were also created by AC Coin & Slot, including
a signature blown glass carousel sign depicting the Snoqualmie Falls.
AC Coin & Slot’s signature hybrid slot bases carried the “Tribe
of the Twelve Moons” theme throughout the casino and provided ultimate
flexibility for Snoqualmie operators, due to their ability to adapt to changing
floor designs. The hybrid bases could be reconfigured and repositioned to create
single, double, back-to-back and carousel game formations that suit any slot
machine from any manufacturer and easily accept complicated wire sets. Furthermore,
the new hybrid bases, designed and patented by AC Coin & Slot partner TC
Millwork, allowed base installation to occur simultaneously with base assembly,
thus speeding time to opening.
