What is Maximalism? It is nothing but a reaction against ‘minimalism’. Bold colours, a mixture of patterns, textures, layers, repetition of design, detailed intricacies, luxurious materials, and more make the ‘maximalist’ space joyful, passionate and powerful.  ‘Maximalist’ being their inspiration, Huzefa Rangwala and Jasem Pirani, founders of MuseLAB design studio in 2012, recently designed a project, a 100-year old colonial bungalow using the play of patterns and colours in a way that was not only visually rich but also tactile in nature! Each space and/or product designed by them embodies integrity and is created with the same care, skill and attention to detail.

The definition of luxury has certainly evolved over time - from excessive, to discreet and understated. Furthermore, the idea of luxury goes far beyond that of a price tag; it is associated with quality, craftsmanship, exclusivity and the uniqueness of the product. ‘Functionality, aesthetics, individuality are keys to luxury’, says famed Dutch architect, Piet Boon. Where interior design is concerned, there is no set formula for how to produce luxurious surroundings. Luxury comes in many aspects; right from customization to details that include the finishing of the product and the choice of material you select. When designing a luxury home, think of it as a welcome escape from the outside world where you’re constantly catering to others’ needs. It should be a representation of you - your tastes, your personality and a celebration of the people and things that you love. Creating a luxury home concept Building your dream home starts with an incredible construction team that has the...

Conversations happen over cups of coffee. We all know that. How about over a table of coffee? Imagine having a conversation not only over a table of coffee, but about the table itself. Sounds uncanny? Imagine a table top that’s not just an ordinary slab of utility but a piece of art - a piece of art which is a result of unconventional thinking and rigorous efforts. Imagine it to be an outcome of intelligence combined with art, of a vision that’s contemporary yet timeless. Now, imagine having a conversation about a table; such a table. Yes, that’s what happened when we unveiled our first table top at the ID Satellite, Mumbai in the November of 2016. Bharat Floorings has been known to create artistic cement products, but this was special. In collaboration with Red Blue and Yellow, we designed the Space and Time themed table tops which were inspired by the magnificent and mysterious nature of space and unchallenged authority of time over the universe.

India Design ID came into existence with the thought of bringing together creative minds from across the country under one roof to showcase their ideas and make design more accessible to the masses. Initiated by Ogaan Media, India Design ID is organised every year in the month of February in New Delhi. It provides a pragmatic platform for both, upcoming and established, architects, interior designers, product designers and décor enthusiasts to display their work and be updated of the ongoing trends. In addition to India Design ID, mini events like ID Exhibit, ID Symposium and ID Satellite contribute to the same purpose on a smaller yet equally popular scale. 2017 saw the fifth edition of India Design ID with names like Elle Décor and Asian Paints associated to it. Like every year, Bharat Floorings was a part of it fuelled with pride and excitement. And design being the centrality of the event, Bharat Floorings, also known for its innovative and unconventional designs, has always ...

Visuals have a larger impact on how well we remember things. We remember some of our childhood stories better maybe because we read them or saw them on television. It is also about how well an artist tells a story that makes a lasting impression. The world is full of stories if you’re careful enough to notice. Some find a story beyond the imaginable while others in the simplest of things. What makes a good story is the art of presenting it to the audience. In this world driven by technology, it is as difficult to awe people as simple it is to reach out to them. Many modern story tellers have discovered an apt tool that has helped their stories reach thousands of people. A tool that we know as Instagram, and the story tellers – Instagrammers! It was the second day and the first Saturday morning of April when Bharat Floorings welcomed a select few Instagrammers for a walk that would go on to become an amazing experience for everyone involved. BFT had been planning The Heritage™ Wa...
