Editorial Review for Lumen – by Fred Schlatter
In Short
The entrance and foyer is lined in richly polished bamboo, a subtle accent found throughout the space. Walls and pillars are unadorned white so as not to distract from a central area, dramatically lit by thousands of LED lights that fire off in undulating waves over dancing hipsters. The bar is long, clad in sheet metal and back-lit and banks of bed-like lounge platforms, wide benches and perches line the perimeter.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoRefreshingly, there is never a cover and rarely much of a line. The crowd tends toward bohemian-chic gals and casual-cool guys, both more interested in the quality house and electronica (and trippy ceiling) than scouting for potential hookups.
The ExtrasOwners hope to draw plenty of special event activity, including charity events, art exhibits and international DJ acts.
ParkingThe meat-packing district isn't the most desirable place to bring a car, considering the spotty signage, shady side streets and patrolling CPD. Think cab, the 8 Bus, or if you must, valet.
