Gage Creates Dramatic

Custom Ceilings For

Casino Vessels

Gage Corporation International shipped two creative custom designs for installation aboard the Treasure

Chest Casino, which was built by

Bender Shipyard.

The design is a concept by Paul

Steelman Ltd. and was crafted by the Gage Corporation.

The lower deck features an un- derwater theme, with the panels featuring a multi-layered textured solution of blues and greens.

The main deck highlights a fac- eted jewel in the panel center sur- rounded by a field of gold. The designs on the Treasure Chest Ca- sino exemplify Gage's ability to mechanically enhance "honest alu- minum" surfaces. Gage also shipped a thematic ceiling design to

Avondale Shipyard for installation by Jamestown Marine.

Gage Corporation's services were used by Kuhlman Design Group to creatively solve a design dilemma for the Isle of Capri (Bossier City) vessel being built by Service Ma- rine.

When the original idea of a cus- tom blue mirrored ceiling was scuttled due to weight, cost and li- ability factors, Gage was able to cre- ate a custom "specular" blue panel essentially replicating the required reflectance and color of the original intent, but without the weight or liability factors.

Gage claims its panels are envi- ronmentally-sensitive (being com- posed of over 50 percent recycled aluminum), are lightweight (.5 lb./

SF), are non-corrosive and fire resis- tant. Gage features more than 300 standard designs, one of which (an honest aluminum design) was used extensively on the dockside portion of this project. For more informa- tion on Gage products,
