The exterior is clad in Jodhpur red sandstone, paying homage to Shekhawat’s hometown and aligning with the color palette typical of Jaipur, also known as the Pink City.
Folded stone lattices allow filtered sunlight into the upper restaurant space. The building blends Rajputana, Mughal, and Art Deco influences, resulting in a distinctive composite style.
