The entire meeting space reveals incredible panache and contemporary styling through the use of ornamental touches, plushly furnished alcoves and fashionable light fixtures.

From the ballroom and pre-function space to registration and alcove areas, a new color scheme will soothe with tones of gold and rust, then surprise with splashes of teal, wine and blue. As part of the new look, designers went for the “wow” with elegant Axminster carpeting from Tai Ping that incorporates ovals, scrolls and graceful spirals, as well as eye-catching medallions and border designs.

Advanced technical support, four permanent registration areas (renovated with black granite counter tops) featuring lockable offices and separate storage, high-tech teleconferencing and simultaneous translation are also available at Rosen Centre.
