BUDGET: 10 crore INR and above (USD1.48 million and above)
Project Overview
Rashtra Prerna Sthal is a landmark national memorial, museum, and public destination developed by the Lucknow Development Authority (LDA) in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. The project celebrates the legacy of three of India’s foremost nation-builders—Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, and Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
More than a memorial, it is an inspiring civic space where history and leadership come alive through architecture, landscape design, storytelling, and advanced museum technologies. Built on land once barren and covered with landfills, the project transforms the site into a vibrant public realm featuring monumental bronze statues, landscaped gardens, meditation areas, public plazas, ceremonial spaces, and a state-of-the-art museum.
Within the museum, visitors experience immersive galleries, interactive installations, projection mapping, holographic storytelling, and digital archives presenting the lives and contributions of the three leaders within India’s nation-building journey.
Rashtra Prerna Sthal stands as a symbol of national pride and visionary urban development—creating a space where visitors experience the values of leadership, service, unity, and nation-building that continue to inspire present and future generations.
What did the client want to achieve?
The Lucknow Development Authority envisioned Rashtra Prerna Sthal as a world-class national destination that would preserve and celebrate the legacy of Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, and Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The objective was to create more than a memorial—it was to develop an inspiring public space that combines a state-of-the-art museum, monumental architecture, landscaped public realms, and large-scale event spaces. By integrating immersive storytelling with advanced technologies, the project aims to educate visitors, strengthen civic pride, and communicate the ideals of leadership, service, national unity, and democratic values. The transformation of a neglected site into a vibrant cultural landmark also reflects the client’s vision of sustainable urban regeneration, creating a destination that inspires present and future generations while enriching the cultural identity of Lucknow and the nation.
Scope of work your company was involved in
Our company was entrusted with the design, development, execution, and operation of Rashtra Prerna Sthal’s museum and visitor experience. Scope included civil and interior works, electrical infrastructure, furniture, display fixtures, and specialized museum fit-outs. We developed museum galleries with thematic stone murals, interactive exhibits, research-driven narratives, artwork, and immersive interpretation systems bringing history to life.
The project involved supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of advanced AV and multimedia technologies, including 3D and 270° immersive projection mapping, holographic displays, LED screens, video walls, digital signage, directional audio, DMX-controlled lighting, and integrated control systems. Our team also produced approximately 90 minutes of original 2D and 3D AV content based on approved scripts.
Beyond the museum interiors, we delivered a permanent outdoor projection mapping show, a professional audio system for the Open Air Theatre, stage lighting with DMX controls, and electrical infrastructure including UPS systems, panels, and cabling. Scope also includes O&M of the museum and its systems for three years, ensuring seamless performance and visitor experience.
What key challenges were faced?
Rashtra Prerna Sthal presented complex challenges given its multidisciplinary nature and scale. A key challenge was integrating civil construction, architecture, interior design, landscape development, museum planning, and AV technologies into a seamless experience—requiring close coordination between engineers, architects, content developers, artists, sculptors, and technology teams so every element functioned as one storytelling environment.
Developing historically accurate content was equally demanding. Extensive research went into authentically representing the lives and philosophies of Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, and Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee, translating these into immersive exhibitions, projection mapping, holograms, and multimedia presentations.
Installing and synchronizing large-scale technologies—270° projection, holographic displays, interactive exhibits, DMX lighting, directional audio, and integrated controls—required meticulous planning, testing, and commissioning.
Finally, ensuring a cohesive visitor journey across galleries, outdoor projections, and public spaces demanded careful spatial planning, balancing historical authenticity, technological innovation, and operational sustainability.
How were those challenges resolved?
Rashtra Prerna Sthal was delivered through meticulous planning, close interdisciplinary collaboration, and phased execution. Architects, engineers, museum planners, exhibition designers, historians, artists, technology specialists, and project managers worked as one team, ensuring every design and construction decision supported the project’s vision.
Extensive historical research and content review cycles ensured every gallery accurately reflected the lives and philosophies of Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, and Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Visualization tools and prototype installations validated exhibition concepts before execution.
To integrate complex AV and immersive technologies, close coordination was maintained between civil, electrical, and technology teams throughout construction. Careful planning of infrastructure, cabling, lighting, acoustics, and installation ensured seamless integration without compromising architectural character. Rigorous testing and commissioning of projection mapping, holographic systems, and multimedia installations guaranteed reliable performance.
Finally, quality control, systematic monitoring, and a dedicated O&M plan ensure the museum continues delivering a world-class experience for years to come.
