Centre Of The Rotunda Of The Parliament Building Stock Photography

Located on the west side of the building, the House of Commons Chamber is the most spacious room of the Centre Block. The architects made provisions for 320 members, and the galleries were designed to accommodate 580 people. The Chamber`s grand design and high level of decoration - its rich and varied materials, fine art embellishments, exquisite craftsmanship, handsome furnishings - are in keeping with the prestige of a plenary meeting room for Canada`s most important democratic institution. The architects envisioned an elegant and dignified assembly hall of Gothic Revival style.
