A Fountain Of Light...CES Style

Last week, we had the privilege of attending, for the eighth time, the glitz, glamour, and gadget showcase that is the 2012 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas...or in industry parlance...simply CES. According to published media reports, this year's show attracted nearly 150,000 attendees and over 3,000 exhibitors from all over the world, including consumer technology behemoths Microsoft, Intel, Sony, Samsung, Sharp, and countless others too numerous to mention.

While there was plenty of action on the show floor, and as there always is on the world-renowned Strip, the highlight of our week was attending an exclusive customer and partner V.I.P. soiree for our client at Hyde, the brand-spankin'-new nightclub inside the Bellagio which just opened on New Year's Eve. Overlooking the iconic Fountains of Bellagio, the 10,000 square-foot indoor/outdoor Hyde marks the first-ever nightlife experience in Las Vegas from sbe and globally-acclaimed designer Philippe Starck. It is a sight to behold, and definitely unlike anything we've ever seen, either in or outside of Vegas. Hyde is not for the timid or those light in the wallet:  private parties start at around $500 per person, and it's all bottle service, with 1.75L of Grey Goose setting you back a cool $1,550.00.

Speaking of the Fountains of Bellagio, our party was on the terrace overlooking the lake and the fountain show, with proximity so close you can feel the spray on your face. Check out this cool video which we took of the show from inside the club:
