The brief

After six years of restoration, a lakeside haveli was ready to welcome guests again. The owners wanted a brand that felt rooted in the building, not a generic luxury hotel look.

The approach

We studied the painted barges on the lake and the canopy arches above their decks. That arch became the frame for every sign, card and menu in the property.

Numbers you can find in the dark

We drew a custom set of Devanagari and Latin numerals for the room doors, lit from below so they read at night from across the courtyard.
