Architecture Design – Exercise # 1

Convention Centre cum Hotel: Convention Centre is a large complex with facilities to host large gathering or exhibit products. The centre could be a large building or large area with many buildings to serve lecture, music concert, exhibitions, and trade shows. The idea of convention centre blossomed out of the Industrial Revolution. International trade was growing and manufacturers needed more ways to market their products. Crystal Palace, London, historically famous and well known exhibition centre was built in 1851 with 990000sq.ft exhibition space, set the trend for many cities to create an iconic building or spaces to bring international and national business organisation together. In India, Pragathi Maidan (meaning "progress grounds" in Hindi) was the first and largest convention centre developed by the Indian Government to host Asian-Trade Show in 1972, with master plan design of Ar. Raj Rewal. The convention centres are considered as a developmental catalyst for economics of a city, which bring in tourism, business and more foreign-exchange. The attraction of huge groups of visitors to city will bring trade and publicity which adds more hotels, shopping centres, public arenas, and job opportunities. Few examples of local convention centres are: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5)
