INTRODUCING
“Introducing the Visionaries Behind the Studs”
What began as countless conversations over food and design dreams soon turned into reality when long-time friends Gaurav and Sameer decided to join forces. United by their shared love for mouth-watering flavors, striking design, and memorable experiences, they founded Energen Hospitality LLP — a venture built on passion and vision.
Together, they set out to redefine how people eat, drink, and connect. Their signature creation, Iron & Timber, embodies this spirit: a place where sophistication meets warmth, and every detail reflects a touch of their personality.
Brought to life under the banner of Energen Hospitality, Iron & Timber reflects the combined strengths of its founders — Gaurav Dugar, a strategist with a strong foundation in business leadership, and Sameer Sharma, a hospitality enthusiast with a flair for design and guest experience.
Their different paths converged with one goal: to create a lounge that feels as memorable as the moments it hosts — a space where sophistication meets warmth, and every detail carries a touch of their personality.
