20MW ACTUAL NEWS Miss World Fashion Show Abu Dhabi at Yas Hotel, inaugural 2009 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Grand Prix 20092009MW ACTUAL NEWS Miss World Fashion Show Abu Dhabi at Yas Hotel, who launches welcoming inaugural 2009 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Grand Prix Abu Dhabi welcomed the Miss World contestants as they arrived in the country for a three-day visit The young women are in the country to host a gala dinner with VIP and celebrities and take part in their own fashion showcase featuring the cream of South African fashion at a Golden Reception on Friday. The fashion show featured the work of seven designers, including JJ Schoeman, Haroun Hansrot and Diamond Face Couture. Earlier in the day the competitors were given a sightseeing tour of Abu Dhabi, including a visit to Sheikh Zayed Mosque. Several of the beauty queens visited the Formula One track on Wednesday, where Miss Italy met the Maserati team who are testing their race cars on the circuit. They will fly on to Johannesburg for the final, which is divided into four events sports, beach beauty, top model and talent. The pageant will be televised live on December 12. Soaring temperatures were a welcome change to the inclement weather they had in London, and some young women took the opportunity to catch some rays poolside at their stunning hotel overlooking the new Abu Dhabi Grand Prix circuit. The hotel will then open to the public on 3 November, the day after the final race of the Formula 1 season. Owned and operated by Aldar Hotels and Hospitality, The Yas Hotel will become the first hotel in the world to span a race track. Its extraordinary 5000 LED panel Grid-Shell will light up Yas Island, which plans to draw around 50,000 spectators to its soil over the three day event this month. The Yas Hotel consists of two towers linked by a bridge, under which the race track runs, giving unparalleled views of this thrilling leg of the Grand Prix season. In addition, The Yas Hotel's Main Building will offer some of the best views of the circuit, the marina and Yas Island. Completion of the bridge has been closely followed by the crowning glory of the hotel, the LED Grid-Shell, which veils the two towers and the adjoining bridge. This 'cloak' has the ability to change colour, enabling the hotel to act as a light show, even staying in time with the beat of various concerts being held over the Grand Prix event. "We are very much looking forward to welcoming our first guests in October for the Grand Prix and it's appropriate that they are from the motorsport fraternity. However, it will be great to share this magnificent hotel with enthusiasts of not only motorsport, but also architecture, those seeking unique culinary experiences, residents of Abu Dhabi and international visitors, when we open to the public on 2 November." http://www.missworld.com/ contestants arrive in abu dhabi Crystal Fountains, one of the world's leading international water feature specialists, collaborated with local design build contractor Belhasa to deliver three dramatic and multi functional water features for the newly developed Yas Marina Hotel on YAS Island, Abu Dhabi. The hotel spans the new Formula One track, with part of the circuit running right through and it will be inaugurated to coincide with the first ever Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on 30th October 2009. Designed by New York based Asymptote Architects, the stunning 85,000 sq m, 500 room, Yas Marina Hotel is part of Aldar Properties ambitious $36bn Yas Marina Development that includes golf courses, theme parks and villas. The water features were fast tracked and erected in record time to ensure they were ready for the much anticipated Grand Prix. Located in the periphery entrances to the Hotel, the three sequencing Water Features incorporate Crystal Fountains latest technology. Programmable water and lighting effects on all three features truly enhance and reinforce the visual impact of this iconic hotel. Crystal Fountains was involved in the Yas Marina Hotels' Water Features from start to finish. They provided technical design, supplied all specialist components needed, and programmed and choreographed the three fountains to produce an array of effects. Design and building contractor, Belhasa appointed Crystal Fountains to work on this high profile development. Suresh Kumar, Senior Project Manager at Belhasa, said, "We had an extremely short time frame in which to construct these iconic features; it was only due to Crystal Fountains help and support that we could execute them within two months. We are delighted with the water features and their effects; having worked with Crystal Fountains in the past in Kuwait we knew they were the right people to provide the right technical support and products for the job." Stephen Vincent, Project Director based in Crystal Fountains Dubai office, commented: "These striking water feature designs coupled with the hotels' futuristic architecture creates a real spectacle." Marina Water Features: The significantly fast tracked project which had to be designed, built and commissioned to coincide with the Formula One Grand Prix was a major challenge. The building of the hotel's water features draws some parallels with the Formula One Grand Prix itself. A race against time was undertaken to install the water features, using the most innovative technology to create dramatic displays and effects. Crystal Fountains enabled the features to be built in just two months through the use and invention of new, cutting edge technology. They managed this through developing, testing and manufacturing in record time a new generation of high performance Smart LED Lights which not only produce 30 watts of power, a first for the industry, but can be serviced as much as 80 meters away from the light fixture. Traditionally LED Lights have needed to be serviced within 10 - 15 metres of remote pit chambers. Pits are remote underground chambers that house the power and data supplies controlling the LED Lights. In the past dozens have needed to be located adjacent to the water feature pools. This is a particular problem in the Middle East where ambient heat especially in the warmer months require service pits to be drained, and air conditioned for them to function. Due to the sheer number of pits needed, initial infrastructural costs are high, maintenance costs increase dramatically not to mention the construction time required to construct such a large number of pits. The use of Smart LED Lights eliminated the need for pits allowing lighting fixtures to be serviced directly from the main plant rooms thus significantly reducing costs and the speed at which the water features could be built. This new generation of lights that produce 30 watts provide a more intense lighting effect than ever before. Michael Denman, Director of Commercial Projects at Crystal Fountains, said: "Taking our latest generation of LED technology from prototype stage right through to a completed, manufactured and tested product in a short time frame required great effort and teamwork. Our R & D, applications engineering, manufacturing and technical service teams were constantly interacting at every stage to make it possible. We hope our efforts will be recognized by the wider viewing public through the splendid effects of the water features." "The new, custom made technology has given us the extra capability to create something special at the Yas Marina Hotel and will help us on other projects in the future," he added. Visual Effects: The three exterior water features include a linear row of nine deck level niched choreoswitches which are located adjacent to a beach entry pool. A series of four raised pools with a total of 41 individually controlled choreoswitches, complete with slab hung LED lights, and the main "Ballroom" entrance fronting the Formula One circuit, incorporate a total of 200 individually controlled choreoswitches complete with LED lighting. Choreoswitches use clear stream individually programmable effects to shoot water a maximum height of three meters in the air. The Smart LED lights incorporate full RGB (Red/Green/Blue) digital color mixing technology to provide endless combinations of colored lighting effects at night. All three water features are highly versatile and dynamic, they can create up to 30 different water shapes including a travelling wave and a continuous spinning wheel effect that was specially designed to compliment the race track and the Grand Prix. Crystal Fountains' design and technology on the features generates highly impressive shows. The water features can be transformed through a variety of different moods and modes providing continuous water shapes. In the evenings they become more dynamic and entertaining devices when LED lights create colorful displays in collaboration with the water. The Hotel: The hotels main design feature is 217-meter grid-shell component on the buildings exterior made from sweeping, curvilinear forms of steel and 5,800 diamond shaped glass panels is the hotels main design feature. This grid shell affords the building an architecture comprised of an atmospheric like veil that contains two hotel towers and a link bridge constructed as a monocoque sculpted steel object passing above the Formula One track that makes its way through the building complex. It visually connects and fuses the complex together while producing optical effects and spectral reflections that play against the surrounding landscape. www.ameinfo.com Subcategorii
