Jiva Spa

The Jiva Spa at the Taj Hotel, London, designed by Emil Eve Architects, blends historic character with modern spa functionality. Clayworks’ bespoke black clay plaster enhances the exposed Victorian brickwork, preserving its rich texture while resisting humidity and providing a thermal barrier. This tactile, earthy finish complements luxurious materials like Carrara marble and walnut joinery, creating a serene, atmospheric space that aligns with Jiva’s traditional Indian healing philosophy. The result is a harmonious wellness retreat honouring the building’s heritage while delivering a state-of-the-art experience.
