Client Brief
Set in the outskirts of Varanasi, Sarnath, the project is a 36000 sqft. Area property. The brief was to create a luxury banquet imbibed with ample ambiance. Glazed facade surface and grand spacious interiors are designed to let guests experience comfort and incredulity.
Concept Note
The concept is inspired from Universe where the ceiling has been worked out to imitate constellations and galaxies. The range of material tone are articulated in the interior as subtle floor to ceiling transition between reflective checker tiles, beige laminates and cushioned walls. The key idea is to create space complimenting the weather and surroundings by exploring volumes and creating a sequential progression of experience using lawn, lobby, and hall.
The whole idea about Universe concept is to create something like that it seems like there is no ceiling and you are standing into the universe and enjoy the ambiance full of spiritedness.
Design Process
To keep things lean and simple, Divide a separate space for Public and private gathering. At the entrance of the site first, you will sight a rich green lawn which connects to the banquet within entrance foyer.
Keeping the low height entrance foyer along with a huge door which is carefully executed as per our expectation and details.
The Main focus of this structure is the central chandelier which is 7 M dia and carrying 3 Ton load, acts as a SUN in the Universe. Where the ceiling is in black and random light depict the stars however the stage area ceiling reflects as a milky-way sojourn into the universe.
The wall flooring is kept simple and in the light colour scheme.

INNOVATION IS USE OF MATERIALS
For that, we were using the low-intensity light randomly in the ceiling to looks like stars, and the huge chandelier at the center of the hall which is act as a Sun. The buffet area ceiling seems like the stars falling down and playing an interesting role in the Banquet Hall. At the other end, above the stage area, the customized crystal was designed to scrutinize the Milky Way traveling into the Universe.
The material used was natural like Italian marble and Carpet for Flooring, Laminate, upholstery fabric, metal, Leather, etc. The purest form of high grains onyx Italian Marble reflect the center part of Chandelier and the buffet area bisect with tile in a checkered pattern, hence the rest area accomplished with Carpet. The leatherette laminate was used for wall paneling and the upper part of the wall were cushioned with Leather paneling along with brass coated metal strip. The curtains were used between the column to constitute the sensibility and a keen eye for detail.
Columns were finished with paint and the front facia conclude the column with diamond-shaped beveled mirror.
