House of Hype is Dubai Mall’s newest and most electrifying attraction, blending immersive technology with high-energy entertainment. Spanning approximately 100,000 sq. ft. in the Chinatown area, HOH is an adventure playground like no other, featuring mesmerizing worlds, interactive games, thrilling performances, exclusive shopping, and epic surprises at every turn.

Designed to be more than just a gaming hub, it’s a permanent installation where technology, design, and creativity converge to form a next-level experience. With immersive lighting as a core element, every inch of the space pulses with vibrant colors and dynamic effects, enhancing the attraction’s energy and excitement.

To craft a truly immersive environment, lighting designer Martin Roberts (@emittiv) turned to ENTTEC’s cutting-edge lighting control solutions. The goal? To create stunning, responsive lighting experiences that seamlessly adapt to their surroundings, amplifying the magic within each uniquely themed space. By utilizing an advanced DMX-controlled system, Martin Roberts orchestrated a symphony of light that shifts, reacts, and evolves with visitors’ movements.
