TESTIMONIALS

ANAND KAMAL COOPERATIVE HOUSING SOCIETY LTD.

HEJC Architects Combine represented by Mr. Hoshedar Carnac had been retained by our society for a restoration project of all lobbies, landings and stairwell of Kamal Mahal Building. The original Kamal Mahal decor is in the art-deco style and instead of renovation our committee decided it would be best to try and preserve the beauty of the existing decor, so in consultation with Mr. Carnac and after due sampling of a few sections, we awarded the contract to HEJC Architects Combine.

The scope of the work encompassed, new tiling, dado work, in-situ work, polishing, painting, woodworks, lighting and lift decor.

The work was conducted keeping a keen eye on detail and executed mostly in good time with positive results. The members have greatly appreciated the restoration of Kamal Mahal interiors to its past opulence and are satisfied with the results.

Congratulations to Mr. Carnac and his team on a job well done.

Dear Mr. Hoshedaar Carnac,

I have been so happy to hear from Mr. Rumi Palsetia and Mr. Faiyaz Mukhtiar of the work that you have been doing to restore buildings in their original style. I had told Ms. Sharda Dwivedi of your work at Kamal Mahal and sent her the photographs. Unfortunately she has not mentioned the restoration work in her book - but this book comes to you with a suitable hand written tribute from her.

I know that your work is motivated by your own aesthetic and cultural sensibilities, but it is always good to be appreciated. My own commitment is to transmit a legacy of beautiful floors, and I am always delighted to meet those who share this commitment.

I look forward to meeting you at a mutually convenient time.

With kind regards and warm appreciation.

Dear Hoshedar,

We decided to entrust you with one of the most important assignment of our life of designing our new home at Ashok Gardens. I even overlooked successful past relationship of 12 years with my old interior designer who also happens to be my dear friend and who has successfully executed my projects. But there was something in you which made me chose you over my old pal and though it was quite strange thing to do at that time….. You were my choice and at time I used to wonder ….. why?

Over last 7 months….. I have got my answers

From patiently listening to our views and ideas while designing our new home, you made it a point to know what we like and what we don’t. You were quite flexible as well as accommodating and never trusted your views and ideas on us. While you always tried to design things to our likings, you gently over ruled us when our suggestions were not appropriate without making offence.

At time, when things were not going our and we were getting bit edgy….. you were very reassuring and had calming effect on us. Your famed reassuring line “Im not designing your home, I’m designing my home” were not merely words. You always walked your talk.

Dear Mr. Perfectionist, your penchant for precision is legendry and I still wonder does it really matter to ordinary mortals but I know it matters to you and you are by no means ordinary…..you are an extraordinary.

You were always there with me when I needed you…even when you were not keeping well, on Sundays and well beyond working hours. late at night. Even while procuring smallest thing like handles for doors in crowded by lanes of Lohar Chawl to selecting high end home furniture at up market designer stores. You were always personally rather. You were equally at ease in both these contrasting places and that proves your honesty, integrity, commitment and dedication to cause.

You and your super efficient team executed the project in most efficient and professional manner. Your team always ensured smooth coofination and timely follow up with all the different agencies involved in the project and ensured timely completion of our most valuable possession…. Our dream home. Thanks to you and your team I could concentrate on my day-to-day work without being hassled by activities going on at our home site. Your designs bear unique stamp and they are an exquisite combination of class, style, elegance, grandeur and maximum utility value. You were equally appreciative of our budgetary allocation and always ensured that we didn’t go beyond our limits.

Dear Hoshedar people like you are very rare and hard to come across in today’s world. BNI Abundance … Thank you very much for introducing me to a wonderful friend and human being like Hoshedar Carnac, who also happens to be an excellent designer and Thank you Hoshedar for designing our dream home which is truly a pleasure to live in. Both me and Nehal (she has specially asked him to convey her gratitude to you) loved working with you on this dream project and shall cherish these wonderful memories forever….

EMPIRE ESTATE

HEC Architects and Interior Designers now known as HEJC Architects Combine had been give the task of restoring my New Empire Cinema, Bombay which is an Art Deco Structure.

They had also been asked to design specific areas in the cinema which concern for my New Empire Cinema, Bombay which is an Art Deco and Heritage Structure:

Restoration of the auditorium, lobbies at both levels, entrance, foyer/vestibule, staircase was done wonderfully and, and also coordinating and dove tailing with the different agencies e.g. painters, masons, carpenters, air-conditioning and the sound system was so good that they got all the work done in a record break time of 3 days short of 3 months.

The new design elements carried out at the New Empire were the soda fountain counters at both levels, the Main Canopy and the fencing around the property. Each of the above Designs was excellent and designed in Art Deco Style which merged with the rest of the art deco style of the cinema complimenting it very well as if it existed for years on end.

Having no experience in the cinema field or art deco restoration, it was a big hearted decision taken by me to award him the project. This project he carried out to my complete satisfaction.

His sincerity and honesty approach to work is commendable too.

He is open to challenges and thrives on succeeding in them. This he has admirably proved in restoring the New Empire Cinema as it was done first in 1984.

I would recommend his services to one and all and truly endorse his after sales service capabilities too.

I always felt comfortable to share my concerns not only with the architect Hoshedaar Camac but also with his assistants. They are truly professionals and combination of excellence work and warm people, which will-only be found at HEJC Architects Combine.

I have recommended you to several people and will continue to do so.
