STORY

xl_First Floor Balcony

Fouzdar House

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Fouzdar House is located in the bustling neighbourhood of Navrangpura, in the heart of Ahmedabad.

Gandhi Room

In reverence to Gandhiji’s influence on the city’s ethos, this room fits his philosophies of simplicity and austerity. The one oversized element in the room is a painting of Gandhiji, reflecting his impact on the country and this city in particular. The room is perfect for solo travellers and has a writing desk and ensuite bathroom.

Safed Room

A most minimalist and simple room, the Safed room uses only different shades of white in its contemporary work, tapestries and textiles.

The artwork here resembles a contemporary take on kolam, representing the family’s current connection with Tamil Nadu and embracing its local craftsmanship. The room has a large king bed, a Nakashima-inspired writing desk and ensuite bathroom. It has direct access to the first-floor verandah.

Kabootar Khana

A very special room whose balcony was originally plagued with kabootars (pigeons). The Kabootar Khana is now adorned with dozens of paintings of pigeons clustered on different walls like roosting birds.

The balcony has been enclosed in precious copper mesh which lends a beautiful patina in the evening light. The room is a fun callback to the house’s nostalgic past.

Fouzdar Room

Located on the ground floor, the Fouzdar Room has a large king bed with an ensuite bathroom and a writing desk.

Admiring the original owner’s memorabilia from his time as the police force’s Fouzdar in his old room gives you a deep appreciation for the respect he commanded.

Baa’s Room

Baa’s Room is located on the ground floor and has its own direct access to the front verandah. It has a large king bed with an ensuite bathroom and writing desk.

Baa means ‘grandmother’ in Gujarati. The owner’s Baa — the Fouzdar’s wife — was devoutly Jain; her art collection is carefully preserved, retaining the room’s esoteric feel.

Nandi Suite

This suite is dedicated to Shiva’s holy disciple Nandi, portrayed in the beautiful red-pigmented wall art and complemented by the red & white themed Kachchh textiles.

Annexing the Nandi Suite, the Jalsaghar (music room) pays homage to Satyajit Ray’s eponymously named film, depicting the decadence that the room invites you to enjoy. The hot tub in the adjoining bathroom further sets this room apart from the rest of the house as its one piece of indulgence.

Jalsaghar

“Jalsa” means “celebration” or “merriment” in Gujarati. Annexing the Nandi Suite, the Jalsaghar (music room) pays homage to Satyajit Ray’s award-winning film Jalsaghar, depicting the decadence that the room invites you to enjoy.

Moti Mahal Lounge

The Moti Mahal Lounge is named after the locally made motibharat beads decorating the wall, a bastion of this dwindling art form.

This lounge is the house’s exception from Modernist furniture, instead opting for Art Deco options from the owner’s collection that better suit the affluent community of Gujarat’s taste for plushness and ornaments.

Living and Dining Room

Framed Kuba cloth art pieces combine with Sabarmati Ashram khadi, evoking Gandhiji’s Gujarat-Africa connection. The seating invites you to relax in traditional Indian poses, reclining and lounging, instead of sitting formally at chairs and tables.

The dining room offers a quiet location to eat a delicious pure veg Amdavadi meal. The original dining table’s laminate was removed and replaced with a solid wood top. Cotton slipcovers were also added to the chair backs.

Back Courtyard

The monkey mural against the courtyard’s wall is the one diversion from the house’s restraint. Designed by Amit Ambalal, one of Ahmedabad’s best living artists, and converted into metal cutouts by his son Anuj Ambalal, this 3D mural uses a peculiar blue pigment that invokes the naughtiness of the prankster, Lord Krishna.

The rest of this courtyard is open, so it may host performing arts shows and baithaks to continue celebrating the arts in Ahmedabad.

Front Garden

The auspicious Ashoka trees surrounding the garden cut Ahmedabad’s harsh light in this hang-out space.
