2022 promises to be a landmark year for the iconic Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Following a series of transformations and expansions led by Oakland, California-based Allard & Conversano Design, the property will undergo a full rebuild of its main entrance and receive updates to its lobby, casino, and other amenities.
“Caesars Palace has driven the evolution of Las Vegas since it opened in 1966. This next wave of enhancements embodies that same spirit,” says Sean McBurney, regional president for Caesars Entertainment. “By introducing a variety of new restaurants, entertainment, and, of course, restorations and renovations across the property, we will substantially improve the guest experience and raise the bar for Las Vegas once again.”
A reinvigorated sense of grandeur will begin at arrival, where the ceiling will be lifted create a more theatrical experience. New glass doors will frame the central Carrara marble statue of the hotel’s namesake and intricate marble mosaic floors will be installed below an ornate chandelier and a handpainted dome depicting the Roman gods. “Our goal is that each guest is greeted with a sense of spectacle and luxury,” says Brad Conversano, principal interior designer for Allard & Conversano. “Our design approach is always to express classic Roman motifs through a modern, updated aesthetic. Unmistakably Caesars: spectacular, elegant, warm, and inviting.”
A new bar will flank the entrance, heralded with a gallery of life-size Venus sculptures set against a backdrop of antique mirrors, cerused wood accented with antique gold, and Italian inlaid wood murals. Other additions to the F&B lineup will bring a taste of New York to the Strip with the opening of Dominique Ansel Las Vegas and Peter Luger Steak House at Caesars Palace later this year.
New York-based Rockwell Group will also oversee updates to the Nobu Hotel Caesars Palace, which it first completed in 2013. In order to convey a more modern, residential-style ambiance, the revamp will draw inspiration from kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold epoxy—creating cohesion from collage—to yield a lighter, more streamlined, and glamorous reinterpretation of the original aesthetic.
