The Exhibition Centre is a three-story structure, defying conventions with its complete steel framework, featuring expansive spans of unsupported column-free spaces reaching 35 meters. Its innovative design addresses spatial constraints and creates a covered public space at ground level, maximising usability for the residents of East Kidwai Nagar.

Upon entering the grand double-height lobby, visitors are greeted with lifts guiding them to Level 1, dedicated to exhibition spaces, and Level 2, a community centre fostering social interactions. 

Indian summers are hot, but Delhi’s temperatures can soar unbearably during the season. The design executed the futuristic build’s intricate, latticed GRC Jali façade inspired by a character typical to Lutyen’s Delhi. The facade transcends being merely a mode GRC screen. It seamlessly integrates an expansive LED screen, transforming the building into a dynamic canvas that comes alive, marrying function and aesthetics for a captivating urban experience while pulling in the crowds. 

To coordinate all aspects of a high-profile event,  The Exhibition Centre’s unmatched services come with a depth of expertise and unmatched commitment to service, which includes multi-cuisine eateries at the entry-level to showcase the subcontinent’s gastronomy, modular, collapsible and reconfigurable exhibition spaces to stretch retail goals; ample community spaces with panoramic views on the upper decks; and duly screened jali work awnings on the terrace to allow alfresco events.

Acknowledging the increasing importance of indoor spaces, particularly public interiors, in shaping and mirroring the changing dynamics of cities, the design for The Exhibition Centre is a public space designed with inclusivity in mind, challenging the conventional notions of public and private and creating a unique ‘public realm.’ In a world where people spend more time indoors due to health concerns and climate impacts, The Exhibition Centre demands a rethink of design priorities. The Exhibition Centre emphasises the crucial role of interior design in addressing broader issues of urbanism, livability, and equity in public indoor spaces.
