Projects & References
CONFERENCE CENTERS represent a wide variety of facilities, from year round dormitory-style accommodations for very large groups to refined executive centers that provide comfort comparable to commercial hotels.
The KALEIDOSCOPE inc. team assists clients in defining their facilities so that the needs of the targeted clientele are both understood and met. Team members have developed strategic site and operational plans to revitalize long-established centers and have developed plans for new conference centers. The following projects represent typical issues and challenges:
