My diploma project was to design a spatial information system for the upcoming Courtyard Marriott Hotel, Pune; franchise owned by The Advantage Raheja. The project demanded sensitivity to spatial experiences. In the planning and design it was important to visualize the journey of the visitor through the space and identify decision making points. Understanding the spatial context of the visitor at these points was the key to the information planning.
Exhibition design solutions often involve communicating information to visitors in a given space. They are a middle ground that reconciles the physical environment to the intended communication. Creating solutions for a space that has a distinct brand and architectural identity, such as a hotel, was interesting as it involved guiding the visitors through experience rather than herding them to their destinations. The design is not only meant to serve a function but also add to the quality of the environment.
This project was an opportunity to use my existing knowledge of various materials and processes. This project was the first foray into spatial information design for me as well as for the company. A lot of research was carried out for learning and the development of methodology. The most positive feedback we got was that the operator – Marriott International recommended us for their other projects as signage consultants. |
