Folk Art Walls : 8 Stunning Indian Styles for Kolkata Homes 2025

Folk art walls have officially become Kolkata’s favourite way to add soul in 2025. These hand-painted folk art walls – created with real community artists on breathable lime plaster – are 100 % monsoon-proof and turn every home into a living story. Here are 8 folk art walls we completed this year that everyone keeps asking about.

Gond Folk Art Walls

1. Gond Art – Jungle Magic in Gariahat

First, we brought Gond artists from Bhopal to a Southern Avenue duplex. As a result, an 18-ft wall now hides yellow taxis inside jamun trees and peacocks in Pujo crowns.

Finally, a Joka bedroom mixes red-black-white tribal motifs with hidden yellow taxis – so subtle guests notice only on visit three.

Why Folk Art Walls Are Winning Kolkata in 2025

In short: every one of these art is hand-painted by the actual community, built with neem-haldi lime (zero fungus), and comes with the artist’s recorded story. Therefore, your walls don’t just look good – they breathe, age beautifully, and start conversations forever.
