design showpiece of the complex is the Atrium,
the vast entrance to Crown. Five stories high,
it is a lavish symphony of light, water and
clouds within a space of black Italian marble
and rippled glass walls. High above the black
marble floor is the crystal wave ceiling, a
100 metre long undulating wave of crystals and
fibre optics. The breathtaking space has
become a total environment, based on the theme
of "four seasons in a day".
Composers, artists and the latest lighting,
laser and technical whizzes have been brought
together to create this amazing world.

Crown
Casino is one of the largest gaming facilities
in the southern hemisphere and propels
Melbourne firmly into the thriving
international tourism, leisure and
entertainment industry. The formidable 350
gaming tables to 2500 slot casino, spanning
half a kilometre in length, represents only 12
per cent of the total 500,000 square metre
property which is dominated by an extensive
entertainment precinct and world-class hotel.
The casino spans one main floor, an upper and
sub-level, with numerous entrances - from the
main street, riverside promenade and hotel.
The main gaming floor is akin to a myriad of
small casinos, all linked by the lush brown
carpet that winds half a kilometre from one
entrance of the casino to the other. The
raised accessed flooring system features a
network of services including a facility to
maintain constant fresh air to the gaming
area.
