They work with creative leading architects and interior designers on special projects for hotels, clubs and restaurants. Their latest project was for the Dutch Embassy in New Delhi. The mysterious Night Watch is shown there as an art installation. This project formed the base for the new “claire-obscure” Night Watch collection that brings tradition into today’s trendy space.
