Capacity and Interior Design
The Chhatrasal Convention Centre in Khajuraho boasts a remarkable capacity, comfortably accommodating up to 1200 people. The center includes smaller halls, three meeting rooms, party halls, commercial kitchens, support areas, business centers, lobbies, waiting areas, and separate entries. Its interior design has been thoughtfully crafted to create a welcoming and functional space for various events and gatherings. The high-quality material provided by the Classic Marble Company is also one of the reasons for the remarkable features in the interior.
Inspiration from Hindu and Jain Temples
The design of the Chhatrasal Convention Centre draws inspiration from the exquisite Hindu and Jain temples in Khajuraho. Elements such as wall stone cladding, carpet designs, and chandelier motifs pay homage to the region’s artistic heritage. These design choices reflect the deep appreciation for art and aesthetics that the Chandela dynasty, known for their splendid temples, held dear.
Materials and Architecture
The construction of the Chhatrasal Convention Centre showcases a captivating and clean rectangular shape formed by two L-shaped wraps. These architectural elements create a sense of lightness and spiritual freedom, with one wrap extending from the back to the front facade and another from the back of the reception to the entrance porch. The Kalesinterflex tiles sourced from the Classic Marble Company were used in the facade and ceiling to give both of them a surreal look.
Challenges Faced and Overcome
Building the Chhatrasal Convention Centre presented numerous challenges that required the expertise and perseverance of the team involved. One major challenge was achieving an attractive and simple appearance without compromising aesthetics. SACPL skillfully handled structural challenges, while V.G.
