House Projection Mapping for Luxury Homes and Holiday Displays

House Projection Mapping for Luxury Homes and Holiday Displays

A familiar home can become something entirely different after dark. With house projection mapping, the facade becomes a canvas for moving images, transforming a private residence into a one-of-a-kind experience for family and guests. Our 3D projection has already transformed a luxury home in Las Vegas into the centerpiece of a private celebration.

We plan and run projection for private residences and estates, from holiday displays to milestone parties. If you have a house in mind, tell us about the home and the occasion.

How house projection mapping fits a home

No two houses share the same shape, so every show starts with a model. We photograph and laser-scan the target, whether it's a building facade, a dome or a stage set, to create a precise 3D model.

The content is then built for that model. We can create custom holiday-themed content mapped to the surface of a building or any other flat or 3D object. For large outdoor shows, we use multiple projectors blended together to cover even irregular surfaces.

What we handle

  • Content made for the house. Every visual is custom, built around your theme, your family's occasion or your colors.
  • Projectors and blending. Several projectors share the front of the home, and the overlaps are blended so the picture reads as one.
  • Trees and gardens. We have covered walls and foliage alike with projection, so the grounds can join the show.
  • A moment inside. A projector can also run inside the house, as it did in a dining room for a tribute video during dinner.
  • Weather and brightness. Outdoor shows need weatherproof projectors or enclosures, plus higher brightness to compete with streetlights and moonlight.

Holiday displays, celebrations and estates

Holiday displays trade strings of bulbs for motion. A holiday show might use warm, nostalgic imagery like crackling fireplaces, twinkling stars or a sleigh ride across a facade.

Private celebrations suit a house that is already full of guests. Private events such as galas, milestone birthdays and corporate retreats also benefit from this technology.

Estates and large grounds need room to view the house from. For a building facade, keep a clear, unobstructed zone at least 50 to 100 feet away: closer and the image loses impact, farther and you lose detail.

Commercial facades, castles and palaces, and city Christmas shows have their own pages, as do one-night event setups away from a private home.

Residential and outdoor work we have delivered

  • US Marines' Annual Birthday Ball: For this annual event at a private residence in Las Vegas, our 3D projection transformed the luxury home into a patriotic homage to the Corps, with custom military themed visuals across the entire front of the home. Two projectors pointed directly at the house, while a third augmented the surrounding trees with undulating visuals. Inside, a projector in the dining room played an inspirational tribute video during dinner.
  • Picnic In The Alley: For the Dress for Success fundraiser in Las Vegas, we installed 13 projectors powered by four media servers to cover thousands of square feet of walls and foliage.
  • A Holiday Spectacular at The Venetian: In 2021, we created a 17-minute holiday-themed projection mapping show with BESTAgency at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas.

Questions about house projection

High-brightness projectors and weatherproofing can handle dusk-to-dark events, though direct sunlight will wash out projections.

For outdoor events, we need to account for wind, dust and ambient light.

The content itself takes two to four weeks to produce, depending on the complexity.

We recommend booking at least 3 to 6 months ahead for holiday and New Year's Eve shows, as production slots fill quickly during peak season.
