I was so mesmerized by Marie-Anne Oudejans Apartment featured in Architectural Digest that I decided to make a post on it.For the past seven years,Dutch fashion designer Marie-Anne Oudejans has resided in Jaipur, in a one-bedroom flat in the romantic Hotel Narain Niwas Palace. She decorated her own rooms, as well as the apartment of her longtime friend French jewelry designer Marie-Hélène de Taillac, the hotel’s quirky Bar Palladio Jaipur, and the Mumbai outpost of the Gem Palace, Jaipur’s epicenter for colorful jewels.
Oudejans, the genius behind the award-winning mid-1990s fashion line Tocca, which featured dresses made of sari cloth, felt right at home when she moved into Jaipur, and settled into a ground-floor apartment that opens onto the pool and a lush tropical garden populated by peacocks, parrots, and monkeys.

When Oudejans learned that hotel management wanted to repaint her suite,She called on artisans who had worked on Bar Palladio to build a clutch of consoles throughout the flat, had painters create Moghul-style flower murals, and added a few gold mirrors and block-printed linens, which she had made locally. She had the apartment’s ceilings painted to look like tents and topped her beds with canopies. You can read the full story in Architectural Digest
