India's achievements in space exploration, from the groundbreaking Chandrayaan missions to Mangalyaan, represent a growing legacy of technological innovation. ISRO’s Dreamverse Tech Experience Center was born from a vision to showcase these remarkable accomplishments while sparking curiosity and fostering pride in India’s space journey. Rubenius Interior Wellbeing was tasked with designing this space to be immersive, adaptable, and engaging, aligning with ISRO's mission to educate, inspire, and support sustainable design.
Creating an engaging tech experience center for ISRO presented an opportunity to celebrate India's advancements in space technology through immersive design. By segmenting the center into thematic zones—Legacy, Mission, Assets, and Launch Tech—Rubenius aimed to guide visitors on a cohesive journey that highlights India’s past achievements and current space capabilities.
The journey to bring Dreamverse to life involved overcoming several design and technical challenges:
Dreamverse features zone-based exhibits that focus on ISRO’s milestones. The Legacy Zone celebrates India’s early accomplishments in space, while the Mission Zone highlights ongoing projects and achievements. Asset and Launch Tech Zones provide immersive insights into ISRO’s resources and technologies, offering visitors a complete and cohesive exploration of India’s space journey.
Embracing digital storytelling, the center uses large LED screens, adaptive lighting, and soundscapes to create a captivating environment. Visitors experience a vivid retelling of India’s space history and future in a setting that fosters learning through cutting-edge tech and multi-sensory engagement.
The Dreamverse Tech Experience Center accommodates diverse audiences with interactive elements designed for varied ages and interests. Children enjoy hands-on displays, while students and professionals engage with detailed information about India’s advancements in space.
From eco-friendly materials to energy-efficient lighting, Dreamverse’s design aligns with ISRO’s commitment to sustainability. Low-maintenance systems ensure longevity without compromising visitor engagement or the high-tech atmosphere.
Though still in the conceptual phase, the proposed Dreamverse design is a model of interactive, multi-sensory technology. The space serves as a tribute to ISRO’s legacy and a beacon for future tech experience centers across India. Its flexible zoning allows for evolving content, ensuring the space remains relevant as India’s space story progresses.
Rubenius’s design vision integrates technology with educational storytelling, creating a tech experience center that’s immersive, adaptable, and aligned with India’s achievements and future aspirations in space.
