Designing Her Vision
Often simplicity is an expression of true class . The unassuming demeanour of Payal Kapoor doesn’t reveal that she has been involved in designing some of the prestigious projects of the hospitality industry. However, the paintings of mF Husain adorning the walls of her office reflect her evolved aesthetic sense.
Her designing portfolio includes Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur, Bal Samand Lake Palace Resort, Jodhpur, Hari Niwas Palace, Jammu & Kashmir, The Imperial, New Delhi, Palace on Wheels among others. Of course, her creative interior designing initiatives include institutes, residence and luxury trains also.
Her three-decade old journey in the field of interior designing and architecture began in 1987, when she was hand-picked by the Executive Director of manasara; one of the leading interior design houses in the country during that time. Within four years of embarking on her career, she became an entrepreneur in 1991, by launching her own design firm named Visions. Today Visions is handling projects, both on consultancy and turnkey basis and has a plethora of prestigious projects behind.
Merging Heritage with Modernity
While conversing with Payal, it was revealed to me that many a time, creativity not only involves unbridled outbursts of radicalism or out-of-the-box thinking, but is also reflected in combining experimentation with precision and restraint.
As far as her hospitality projects go, she fondly recollects the challenge and creativity involved in the restoration and upgradation of Umaid Bhawan Palace. Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur is the home of the erstwhile Jodhpur royal family and currently the world’s sixth-largest private residence.
