As Technical Consultants, Collage Design worked closely with the Dept of Sports, Uttar Pradesh and the Sports Authority of India, to ensure that all Event Overlays were in compliance with respective sport federation guidelines, and local safety protocols. Each sports optimum venue was identified and the Field of Play (FOP) layouts and Overlay Mappings were meticulously curated, forming vibrant spaces that met international standards. State-of-the-art facilities, including grandstands, training areas, locker rooms, power & energy infrastructure, utilities, fencing, flooring, sports lighting, security measures, media centres, LED screens, TSR integrations, Spectator movement for safety, VIP areas and numerous other amenities were incorporated into the venues. We helped transform permanent structures through the use of temporary overlays and immersive design elements.
