Bergman Walls & Associates is a global architecture and interior design firm specializing in destination design for the casino gaming, entertainment and hospitality industries.
For more than 25 years, BWA’s mission has been to provide the highest level of individualized design services while realizing owners’ visions and business objectives, delivering inviting spaces that delight and engage guests.
BWA’s portfolio includes wide-ranging work for commercial and Indian gaming hospitality clients. The BWA design team has extensive experience conceptualizing, master-planning and designing entertainment, hospitality, mixed-use and gaming projects, ranging from intimate boutique restaurants to entire mega-resorts.
BWA recently completed projects at the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa in Cabazon, California; the Apache Casino Hotel in Lawton, Oklahoma; and the Swinomish Casino and Lodge in Anacortes, Washington, which included adding flexible event and entertainment spaces, casino floor expansions, hotel tower renovations and dynamic new dining and retail options.
BWA also applies its extensive hospitality experience to other entertainment-based projects, raising the bar on business-as-usual. Recently completed projects include FlyOver Las Vegas, a new augmented-reality, family-friendly immersive experience; and ESPN’s studio at the LINQ Hotel + Experience, home to the network’s sports betting show, the Daily Wager; as well as sports betting lounges for commercial and tribal gaming properties.
Designing for the gaming, entertainment and hospitality industries requires in-depth understanding of the functional, operational, economic and aesthetic considerations behind each facility and each client’s needs. Along with BWA’s architecture and interior design services, the firm also offers master planning to help address today’s facility operational and safety protocol needs and accommodate future customer tastes and trends—from flexible casino floor designs to sportsbook lounges, interactive gaming spaces and other non-gaming entertainment options that attract new patrons and new demographics.
BWA helps turn properties into destinations that exceed client business and patron experience expectations. For more information, contact John Hinton, director of Native American projects, at jhinton@bwaltd.com.
