Away from home, yet a home of your own.

Our Architectural Soul

47 Jobner Bagh is the creative vision of Paola Giacomini and Shiva, where Paola’s architectural genius met Shiva’s passion and imagination. An exceptionally talented architect from Italy who made India her creative home, Paola designed every section, material, and detail with deep thought—seamlessly blending international sophistication with Indian heritage. From grand layouts to quiet corners, her work ensured that every space carried both functionality and soul.

After Paola’s passing, her dear friend and collaborator Andrea Perra stepped in to continue her dream. Alongside Indian architect Kirti Singh, Andrea helped bring Jobner Bagh to completion—staying true to Paola’s design language while infusing it with warmth and continuity.

With Shiva’s dedication, Andrea’s guidance, and Kirti’s insight, the property evolved into a living masterpiece—a timeless retreat where luxury, culture, and emotion coexist in perfect harmony.

From a Humble Stay to a Timeless Retreat

What began as a modest homestay by Anita and Shiva soon became the soul of countless journeys. Travelers from across the world discovered not just a place to stay, but a sense of home within these walls. At the heart of this dream stands Shiva, the visionary whose imagination shaped Jobner Bagh into a sanctuary of belonging.

Adding warmth to this vision, Anita created the kitchen that remains its soul—serving authentic Indian meals prepared as they are at home: nourishing, less spicy, made with organic ingredients, and filled with care. Every plate reflects her belief that food should comfort like family.

As the haven blossomed, Megha’s thoughtful management ensured its spirit remained timeless, keeping every detail aligned with the values on which it was built.

Together, their vision, soul, and stewardship transformed Jobner Bagh into more than a boutique stay—it became a place where strangers arrive as guests and leave as lifelong friends.

Friendship Woven Into Every Stone

Jobner Bagh stands as a living testament to friendships that became family. The late Paola Giacomini, a visionary Italian architect, embraced Jaipur’s haveli traditions and breathed life into this dream. Alongside beloved friends Oscar, Rita, and Federico, every detail was imagined with love, passion, and respect for heritage. Together, they shaped not just a retreat, but a soulful home infused with their spirit.


It was through late-night conversations, sketches on paper, and shared dreams that the foundation was laid. Each corner reflects their devotion to authenticity, blending Rajasthani grandeur with European sensitivity. This collective spirit ensured that Jobner Bagh would always remain a story of people, not just property.

The Artistry of Federico

Federico, a celebrated interior designer known across the world, gave Jobner Bagh its refined elegance. His vision touched everything—from the placement of a single window to the trees that grace the garden. With simplicity and grace, he curated interiors that feel intimate yet grand, luxurious yet welcoming. And in this story, even his beloved dog in Barcelona holds a place, reminding us that Jobner Bagh is not only a house, but a home built on love, memory, and companionship.


Every object, fabric, and finish was chosen with a storyteller’s care, balancing subtlety with sophistication. Federico’s artistry turned Jobner Bagh into an experience, not merely a stay—where light, space, and detail breathe together in harmony. His work ensured that the soul of Jobner Bagh is timeless, resonating with guests long after they leave.
