Hall of Nations, Modernist building in New Delhi, India
The Hall of Nations featured interconnected domes constructed with reinforced concrete, creating a vast exhibition space in the Pragati Maidan complex.
Inaugurated by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1972, the structure commemorated twenty-five years of Indian independence through its innovative architectural design.
The building served as a symbol of Indian architectural progress, incorporating traditional spatial concepts with modern construction techniques in post-colonial India.
The complex contained four exhibition halls connected by ramps, hosting international trade fairs and exhibitions until its demolition in 2017.
The structure stood as the first space-frame building made entirely of reinforced concrete, spanning unprecedented distances for its construction period.
