16 AV Installations from 2018 That AV Integration Firms Can Learn From

Aon Center is one of Chicago’s most famous buildings. It’s appropriate, therefore, that the two new 42-foot-wide by 10-foot high 4mm pixel pitch NanoLumens LED displays in its lobby are showcasing Chicago-themed visuals.

It recently completed the installation of two enormous NanoLumens LED displays that create a floor-to-ceiling digital wall that invites tenants and guests to experience stunning Chicago-themed visuals on a massive scale, according to a press release by the LED provider.

The LED displays measure a total of 840 square-feet and dominate the building’s main entrance at the south lobby, according to Joe Hynes, senior VP of project management at JLL, the Aon Center property management firm.

“During renovation planning we worked with architects to include cutting-edge features that would be fun for tenants, prospective tenants and guests,” Hynes says.

“One of our ideas was a massive digital canvas, and NanoLumens was the obvious choice to make this idea a reality. As people pass by and enter the building … they have to walk right between the two displays in order to enter the main hallway, so it’s almost as if they are walking directly into the digital content itself.”
