A Contemporary Reflection of the Timeless Taj

Bellevue at The Oberoi Amarvilas | Agra

Bellevue is an all-day dining restaurant at The Oberoi Amarvilas, a luxury hotel facing the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Taj Mahal on the bank of the river Yamuna in Agra, India. In keeping with the Mughal influences, this refurbishment project creates a rhythmic, bright and luxurious space. The original Thasos marble and red sandstone flooring is preserved, leaving all interventions suspended above ground. The main feature of the design is its cross-vaulted ceiling, which seamlessly merges into flared columns and fluted wall panelling and is executed to precision using computationally designed moulds and white plaster. Warm tones of timber and splashes of royal blue animate the pristine interiors. The restaurant also opens out into an alfresco dining area with panoramic views of the hotel’s lawns and the Taj Mahal.
