If you want more expensive things, created by one of India's best designers, Neeru Kumar / Tulsi, go to THE COURTYARD, just behind the Radio Club in Colaba. (Your hotel will tell the taxi driver how to get to those places).

Might just serve some of the needs of South Mumbai book lovers with its selection of English and Indian literature. Located on the ground floor of the 150-year-old Somaiya Bhavan, Kitab Khana is owned by Amrita and Samir Somaiya, who wanted a store where people would be encouraged to read and lounge about. “We want a space that will feel like a living room, where people can read a book and have a cup of coffee, a space that would lend itself to places in Europe or North America,” said Amrita Somaiya. “We want to offer Bombay one more shop to hang out at.”

Kitab Khana has plenty of reading nooks and seating areas, including a coffee shop that sells a range of pastries, cakes, tarts, salads and sandwiches. With its cast-iron columns, high ceilings and Italian marble statues, the store has already set itself apart from chains like Crossword and Oxford. Unlike the other two, Kitab Khana also sells a substantial selection of books in Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati. The Somaiyas say that about 75 per cent of the stock comprises popular literature, so you can expect to find all the usual fiction and non-fiction biggies. The other 25 per cent is for philosophy and more “stimulating” fare, which includes shelves devoted to Gandhi, poetry, Indian texts like the Upanishads and Bhagvad Gita as well as science books and Penguin classics. There are also sections for children’s books (including a small play area), cook books, coffee table books and travel books, but Strand fans will discover that the selection is not much more varied than at that Fort stalwart. We did like the rack of international magazines, which was positioned next to a cosy seating area, as well as the charming character afforded by a heritage structure. But in terms of book selection, don’t go with high expectations. You’re better off cashing in on the discounted prices at Strand.

nor black nor white

eye lo descubrió en agosto de 2011

“Exploring India through textile and art”, says Amrit Kumar and Mriga Kapadiya’s website. The Canadian-born designers have made Mumbai their home and Gujarat their playground, which plays a starring role in their first collection. Nor Black Nor White’s range is an abbreviated affair, a capsule collection of just 18 pieces that incorporate traditional Kutchi bandhini (tie-dye) work and embroidery techniques on sexy, oversize boyfriend shirts, easy-to-wear separates and short dresses.

Kumar and Kapadiya grew up in Toronto, but moved to Mumbai a couple of years ago. The line might never have come into being if they hadn’t decided to travel to Kutch, where they encountered Kala Raksha, an organisation that works toward preserving traditional Gujarati art and embroidery techniques. What’s the significance of the brand name? It’s because it’s “a grey space,” the designers said. “Part anthropology, part fashion. Not this nor that.”

Every piece in the collection is thoroughly modern, thanks to their uncomplicated cuts. We’ve got our eyes on a slippery silk shirt in bright orange with oversize bandhini diamonds, and a boldly-patterned indigo and yellow dress that loosely skims the body. But we wouldn’t say no to their twist-back camisoles or super-wide khadi trousers either. It’s an effortless capsule wardrobe and we want it all. Vandana Verma
