 A SHAPED PLAN

CONCEPT
• Highly site-specific scheme
• The site is wide towards the front road and narrows down towards the back. The building follows the site, forming the
letter 'A', in plan.
• Due to limited open space on site, continuous green space has been conceived in the form of stepped terraces - third
level to the top floor
• The rooms are arranged along the two arms of the 'A' and the connecting slab between the two arms acts as terrace
space which step back as one goes to the higher levels.

Room Set-Up Examples
E-SHAPE, U-SHAPE AND T-SHAPE
Appropriate for groups of fewer than 40 people. These are best for interaction with a leader seated at
the head of the setup. Audiovisual is usually best set up at the open end of the seating.

CONFERENCE AND HOLLOW SQUARE

Appropriate for interactive discussions and note-taking sessions for fewer than 25 people. Many hotels
have elegant "boardrooms" for 10 to 20 people, equipped with full audiovisual capabilities, a writing
board, cork board and a flip chart.
RECEPTION
Stand-up social function where beverages and light foods are served. Foods may be presented on small
buffet tables or passed by servers. May precede a meal function.

OVALS AND ROUNDS

Generally used for meals and sessions involving small group discussions. A five foot round table seats
eight people comfortably. A six foot round table seats 10 people comfortably.

THEATER
Appropriate for large sessions and short lectures that do not require extensive note-taking. This is a
convenient setup to use before breaking into discussion or role-playing groups because chairs can be
moved.
BANQUET
Generally used for meals and sessions involving small group discussions. A five foot round table seats
eight people comfortably. A six foot round table seats 10 people comfortably.

SCHOOLROOM OR CLASSROOM
The most desirable setup for medium to large-size lectures. Requires a relatively large room. Tables
provide attendees with space for spreading out materials and taking notes.

• The prime location within New Delhi Aerocity presented a unique set of design challenges with prescribed limits on
density, building setbacks, building height and materials. Special security requirements were also included to reduce
the vulnerability of the building to potential threats. In addition, the proximity to the airport created special challenges
for noise control. The design of the JW Marriott addressed all of these challenges with skill and elegance.
• The hotel features six restaurants and lounges that include Japanese restaurant Akira Back, grab-and-go patisserie
and retail shop Delhi Baking (DBC), K3 restaurant and JW Lounge.
• The Bengaluru and New Delhi hotels will be the JW Marriott brand’s fourth and fifth hotels in India, and its 61st and
62nd properties globally.
