The document provides details about the City Centre shopping mall located in Salt Lake City, Kolkata, India. It was designed by renowned Indian architect Charles Correa and aims to fuse traditional Indian marketplace qualities with modern amenities. The 50,400 square meter complex incorporates residential plots, offices, entertainment venues, shops, and public plazas arranged in a fine-grained mix. Correa's design rejects the isolated mall model and emphasizes connectivity to the surrounding urban context through open layout and semi-covered walkways.

The hangars in Laatzen, south of Hanover, were deemed suitable for this purpose, and so the Hanover Fair, then named Exportmesse 1947 was first held in 1947 to promote the economic recovery in the Bizone. The concept proved to be successful, and so a permanent fairground was established, growing over the years.

In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

INTRODUCTION
4. "The City Centre in Kolkata is a very special place...a microcosm of the
whole metropolis, catering to multiple land-uses and diverse income
profiles...a kaleidoscope of contrast, color and energy. We have in the City
Centre a wide range of different-sized residences, entertainment centers,
offices and shops - varying from the smallest 'dukaans' to the most
glamorous air-conditioned boutiques and large department stores.
These multifarious activities, all arranged in a fine-grained mix, are
generated by a complex system of spaces...from broad colonnaded public
arcades to narrow bazar 'galis' to large terraced plazas...culminating in the
kund in the center of the complex. Coffee shops and restaurants,
strategically placed at pivotal locations, provide opportunities to rest under
wide-spreading trees and observe the world around you...a marvelous
tradition, which has always been essential to life in the great city of
Kolkata".
-Charles Correa, celebrated Architect-visionary, Designer of City Centre
Salt Lake
5. • Indian architect and urban planner credited with the
creation of modern architecture in post-
Independent India, he was celebrated for his
sensitivity to the needs of the urban poor and for his
use of traditional methods and materials.
• He designed almost 100 buildings in India, from low-
income housing to luxury condos.
• He rejected the glass-and-steel approach of
some post-modernist buildings, and focused on
designs deeply rooted in local cultures, all the while
providing modern structural solutions under his
creative designs.
• His style was also focused on reintroducing outdoor
spaces and terraces.
• In 2013, the Royal Institute of British Architects held a
retrospective exhibition, "Charles Correa – India's
Greatest Architect", about the influences of his work
on modern urban Indian architecture
THE ARCHITECT
CHARLES MARK CORREA
(1 September 1930 – 16 June 2015)
6. - British architect David Adjaye
“His work is the physical manifestation of the
idea of Indian nationhood, modernity and
progress. His vision sits at the nexus defining the
contemporary Indian sensibility and it articulates
a new Indian identity with a language that has a
global resonance. He is someone who has that
rare capacity to give physical form to something
as intangible as ‘culture’ or ‘society’ – and his
work is therefore critical: aesthetically;
sociologically; and culturally.”

15. The Kunda
At Salt Lake City Centre, Correa has kept the air conditioned spaces deeper
inside so that what greets the visitor is always the embrace of open space
and penetrable built form which pulls you in
Cineplex
Tea Junction
A down-to-earth adda place and a highly informal ‘time pass’ idea at the City
Centre, where tea is a welcome cup of steaming chai, and the snacks are no–
nonsense samosas, vadas and small munchies. You can sit on tea chests and
watch the world go by, as you rest your tired feet after shopping.
Inox, India’s largest multiplex chain has a four screen multiplex at City Centre
Salt Lake with seating capacity for more than 1000. The City Centre Inox is one
of the best performing multiplexes of the chain.
The Kolkata Store
There is a horse-drawn Kolkata tram-car dating back to 1880 which is a
celebration of Kolkata’s heritage and love. It evokes in the hearts of Kolkatans a
great sense of nostalgia and reminds one of the history of 'The City of Joy.' Great
care has been taken in the restoration process, to retain the romanticism of a
bygone era.
16. Mall within
Mall
The objective behind creating a fusion between organized and unorganized
retail was to unleash marketplace energy where traditional market like
interaction between the shopkeepers and the customers is ensured.
Special Kiosks
Car Parking
Besides the car parking facility provided within the complex, there is additional
parking space available on the periphery. Parking is handled by a professional
group appointed and controlled by City Centre Management.
These are the crucial nerve points of City Centre. From the henna stall that
started with wedding crowds in mind to the ‘jhalmuriwala’ and the Chinese
food takeaway counter, from corn stalls and ice-cream outlets, the special kiosks
at City Centre rub shoulders with their better known cousins.
The Royal Bengal Room
Total Area : 6500 sq.ft.
Dining Hall : 2000 sq.ft.
Pre function area : 1500 sq.ft.
Kitchen area : 1500 sq.ft.
Banquets Party Terrace
It is an open banqueting space
above Hangout at City Centre,
Salt Lake.
Total area : 4000 sq.ft
Capacity : 250 pax
17. Built in Charles Correa’s signature style, City Centre
Salt Lake is simple, elegant and understated with a
very strong geometry. The celebration that is a part
of an entertainment experience is provided by the
judicious use of bright colors on some surface. The
framework is simple, so that the shop they contain
can have their own visibility and prominence. A fair
amount of greenery is included throughout the
complex to provide warmth and intimacy. The
context is very Indian and the experience is very
contemporary and youthful

40. MAJOR FEATURES
• Spacious ‘adda’ space where the Kolkatan or
his guest can truly relax over cuppa and
conversation.
• A welcome hybrid difference between a
natural and conditioned environment. A
street-feel without the street.
• To avoid sunlight in summer and rain, it has large pedestrian
walkways covered by a polycarbonate roof.
• The buildings alongside are so arranged that they provide
diffused sunlight and the roof at 25 ft above the ground
enhances the sense of openness.
• The Indian bazaar format is informal and has
intensely personalized seller-customer
interaction.
• It is also more pluralistic.
• The western mall format is characterized by
mammoth retailers selling primarily branded
products to segmented customers.
• City Centre represents a harmonious presence
of both.
• City Centre has commercial activities, shopping,
food and entertainment.
• It has the highest number of food outlets among
any mall in Kolkata.
• It has a four-screen multiplex and a large 10,000 sq.
ft electronic games and entertainment section.
• It has Shoppers Stop as an anchor and nearly 200
other outlets.
FUSING THE BAZAAR AND MALL
JUDICIOUS ACTIVITY MIX AND MORE VARIETY
OPEN FORMAT
RELAXED AMBIENCE
THAT ‘BOUNDLESS’ FEELING
• The absence of a boundary wall makes
City Centre an integral part of the city
rather than a gated complex.
• A place that doesn’t scream for
attention and yet can’t be ignored.
41. INFERENCES
• The activities linked together by
means of linking elements, which not only
satisfies the function of activity, but also
provides visual connectivity creates
harmony.
• Concept of conventional Indian
marketplace is replicated.
• The space, volume and from is
designed considering the types of
enclosures and the circulation pattern.
• Nature of integration between built
and open spaces, with the surrounding
environment.
• Correa has kept the air conditioned
spaces deeper inside so that what greets
the visitor is always the embrace of open
space and penetrable built form which
pulls you in.
• Consideration of Orientation of the
building as it creates shades and shadows
on the external surfaces.
• Obstructed servicing in staggered
blocking planning
• Not much scope for informal activities
42. IN CONCLUSION • Correa’s design offers a kind of benchmark for all such
mall designs , especially in India and Nepal.
• Wonderful as it is, Correa’s design not just a skillful
piece of architecture but an argument, once again,
about the relevance of many old spatial traditions to our
most contemporary architectural needs.
• Correa’s design is about a sociable connection between
the mall as a shopping space, and the city in which it
stands.
• The international model of the mall is of a completely
sealed box which keeps the city out which thrives on
turning its back on what is out there.
• Air-conditioning is the most direct expression of this
attitude. Outside air may not flow freely through indoor
space as the barrier to air is also felt as a barrier to our
own movement.
• The ventilation system, we unconsciously note as
visitors, is also subtly about the ease with which people’s
movement may flow in and out of a building along with
air.
• These efforts of the architect is apparent in the layout
and the functioning of the complex almost 17 years after
it’s completion
