Verra House Boutique Hotel
Hospitality | Amritsar, India | December, 2024
“Verra” is derived from verandah—a subtle nod to the project’s architectural language of breezy thresholds, open transitions, and grounded hospitality.
Regional cues, reinterpreted. Verra House is a 24-key boutique hotel in Amritsar that rethinks traditional hospitality through a lens of material precision, spatial calm, and contextual relevance.
Set within the rich cultural backdrop of Amritsar, Verra House balances familiarity and restraint. Its design language draws from vernacular architecture - open corridors, stone masonry, shaded courtyards - but refines them into a modern hospitality experience defined by clarity and comfort.
The building mass is organized around a central courtyard and pool, creating a natural inward focus. Façades are wrapped in hand-chiseled stone and lime plaster, accented with teakwood shutters and custom metalwork that filters light and creates rhythm. The palette stays rooted in earth tones - muted clays, soft taupes, warm neutrals - carried through across architectural elements and landscape detailing.
The outdoor dining areas are designed as a natural extension of the indoors, with a layout that encourages informality and openness. Material intersections - porous stone, patterned terrazzo, cast concrete, woven cane - help blend hospitality with tactility. Furniture and accessories lean contemporary but sit comfortably within their regional context.
Guestroom wings are quiet by design. Circulation flows through shaded colonnades lined with vertical screens, textured floors, and diffused natural light. Each room offers privacy without detachment, connecting to the overall architecture while maintaining individual comfort and warmth.
Verra House isn’t just a hotel - it’s a spatial rhythm. One that moves slowly, lives lightly, and invites guests to feel the architecture as much as see it.
