FAQs
Who supplied the lighting for Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney?
Haneco Lighting supplied the complete lighting package for Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, covering both the commercial Dular downlight range and more than 450 bespoke decorative fittings, delivered as one coordinated package for the hotel’s guest rooms and common areas.
What types of lighting were installed at Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney?
The project combined commercial general lighting such as recessed downlights, more than 450 bespoke decorative fittings including pendants and wall sconces, exit and emergency lighting, and smart lighting controls for dimming and scene setting, all supplied and managed by Haneco.
What is the difference between commercial and bespoke decorative lighting?
Commercial lighting is proven catalogue product, such as recessed downlights or exit and emergency lighting, built for consistent, reliable everyday performance and compliance. Bespoke decorative lighting is custom-engineered from an architect or designer’s original concept into a manufacturable fitting, giving a space its own distinct character rather than an off-the-shelf look.
Can Haneco supply both commercial and bespoke decorative lighting on one project?
Yes. On Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, Haneco supplied commercial lighting, decorative bespoke fittings, exit and emergency lighting, and smart lighting controls from a single point of responsibility, so the whole project was managed as one coordinated package rather than separate vendors.
How are bespoke light fittings developed from an architect's concept?
Haneco takes the architect’s original design concept and produces detailed three-dimensional models for review, then works through materials, finishes, light source, electrical components and manufacturing tolerances, with every fitting reviewed and approved with the architect and engineering consultant before production.
Does Haneco supply lighting controls and smart lighting systems for hotels?
Yes. At Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, Haneco supplied KASTA smart lighting controls alongside the general and decorative lighting, giving the operator control over dimming and mood without adding separate fittings or complexity across guest rooms and common areas.
Does Haneco supply exit and emergency lighting as part of a project package?
Yes. Exit and emergency lighting was supplied as part of the complete package at Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, alongside general and decorative lighting, so compliance lighting was coordinated with the rest of the project rather than sourced separately.
When did Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney open?
Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney opened on 13 October 2025. It is an 18-storey boutique lifestyle hotel with 174 guest rooms and suites at 13 Parker Street, Haymarket, and is the first Caption by Hyatt property in the Southern Hemisphere.
Can Haneco work directly with architects and interior designers on custom fittings?
Yes. Haneco has an in-house team of lighting designers with more than 40 years of combined experience. On Caption by Hyatt Central Sydney, that team worked directly with design architect Bates Smart, interior designer Mitchell and Eades and engineering consultant FPOV Consulting, taking original design concepts through 3D modelling, material and component selection, and approval before manufacture.
