Hospitality

Crafting grandeur: our multi-decade collaboration with The Oberoi Group

The Oberoi name is shorthand for the gold standard in hospitality. Working across five of its properties has been an exercise in precision and artistic rigour in equal measure.

Crafting grandeur: our multi-decade collaboration with The Oberoi Group

Stonegraph's portfolio records hand-finished architectural stone associated with The Oberoi Udaivilas, Rajvilas, Amarvilas, Vanyavilas and Sukhvilas. Across properties with different settings and architectural languages, the work required consistency at project scale without flattening the character of carved stone.

The hospitality vocabulary in stone

  • Stone jali screens โ€” pierced patterns finished to manage light, shadow and the view through the screen.
  • Pillars and columns โ€” repeated profiles coordinated across separate blocks so an assembled elevation reads continuously.
  • Inlay and artifacts โ€” smaller details whose material contrast and edge quality are most visible at close range.

Large hospitality packages combine repeated architectural elements with one-off artistic features. Drawings, samples and dry assembly establish the geometry; hand finishing then resolves the joins, foliage, arrises and surface character. That sequence allows a workshop to maintain coordination across many pieces while preserving the judgement expected in a carved feature made for a particular room or courtyard.
