The Scene

Feigning stylish cool, Chromium doesn't really house many rare elements of nightlife. But the flashy and fleshly do come out to play in new threads, sipping overpriced drinks and looking attractive and available.

 

The Set

This expansive, metallic-skinned venue's mezzanine offers a voyeuristic view of the dance floor and the action below. The club's up-to-date furnishings include two large video projection screens, a smokey plexiglas DJ booth and a lushly lit VIP lounge upstairs with its own sound system.

 

The Style

Chromium says if you've got it, flaunt it. Hard bodies in tight outfits throw their plastic around -- credit cards and body parts. No one here is talking politics and Proust.
