A hall for the largest gatherings, with no column in the way.
An Odisha-based group wanted a deluxe banquet hall in New Town, and they wanted the hall floor entirely free of columns. On a site of 61,569 sq ft, the studio spanned the hall with a long-span steel roof, keeping the void above the bottom chord for air-conditioning conduits, fire pipelines and catwalks.
Inside, sculpted FRP panels shape the ceiling and the walls into continuous surfaces and ornament. A lounge, a restaurant and the kitchen sit on the upper level, looking down into the hall. Outside, the building takes an Indo-Saracenic form of cusped arches and finials behind a set of ornate gates.
Construction is under way; the photographs here are from site.
