Fizz Receives 10th Annual Hospitality Design Magazine Award

FIZZ, the lavish new champagne bar and lounge at Caesars Palace, will be announced as a winner of the 10th annual Hospitality Design Magazine Awards held at the Grand Hyatt New York on Wednesday, June 4. FIZZ was selected as the winner of the "Nightclub, Bar and Lounge" category from more than 400 entries around the world.

"FIZZ shimmers as a space that is simultaneously glamorous and relaxed while speaking of champagne's endearing qualities," says FIZZ designer, Todd-Avery Lenahan. "Champagne has been brought forward as a key element of the design and is wrapped in the aura of Creative Director David Furnish and his partner, Sir Elton John. The result is an atmosphere that truly encompasses the glamour and elegance champagne represents."

A visually exquisite concept designed by Lenahan, FIZZ invites guests on an artistically inspiring journey. Entering the intimate interior reveals a 23 foot-tall-ceiling, framed by an upper level overlooking the main floor. The palette of cognac, ivory and copper embrace the spirit of champagne, lending luxury and warmth to the atmosphere, finished in silk moiré and walnut. Oversized chandeliers hang from the ceilings, lighting the venue from the ceilings, above. Bronze glass, cream leathers, faux fur and cheetah print complete the palette that recalls the original interior fashions of Caesars Palace in the late 1960s and early 1970s, with a spirit entirely reimagined for today by Lenahan.

In a city where the world's largest mega-clubs accommodate thousands of people simultaneously, FIZZ is a decidedly bespoke venue offering intimacy and unparalleled standards of service. The chíc champagne bar and lounge even boasts avant-garde photography from Furnish and John's private collection. The venue was chosen for the esteemed accolade by an anonymously juried party based on its beautiful infrastructure and captivating atmosphere.

Furnish and Lenahan, along with owners Michael Greco and Steven Kennedy, of FIZZ will accept the accolade at Hospitality Design Magazine's award ceremony. Lenahan is an inductee of the prestigious Hospitality Design Platinum Circle, which recognizes lifetime achievement and contributions to the industry at-large. Lenahan's namesake firm, TAL-Studio, is an international design firm that annually receives the industry's top honors for its work worldwide.
