Reaching completion in 2009, the North Hollywood Gateway is a brilliant and bold piece of art that spans across a busy intersection in Los Angeles. The project was designed by Peter Shire, an artist who was chosen by a selection panel made up of community artists, representatives, art professionals, and staff from the California Redevelopment Agency(CRA).

The extravagent Excalibur Hotel and Casino sits along the Las Vegas Strip. The medieval-themed casino was originally completed in 1990, where it started a rapidly growing trend of luxurious buildings that popped up along the Strip. The original plan for Excalibur Casino was for the castle’s turrets to be recoated every three to four years; however, the long-term costs of maintaining Excalibur’s exterior coatings would grow astronomically. To avoid this, Tnemec's Fluoronar with Lumiflon FEVE resin was chosen to coat the turrets in a 2000 renovation.
