Let not the size of your space define the interiors and look of it. While decorating your home, you might face a lot of challenges, it may be overwhelming, but it’s also ‘thrilling’ as it’s your space, your comfort zone, where you can be yourself. Your goal should be to showcase your design aesthetic in a tasteful way, whether you face difficulties from an interior that lacks natural light to a layout that’s much smaller than you’d like.

In 1922, Bharat Floorings and Tiles was founded on the belief to evolve the nation. When The Bharat Flooring tile company first started in 1922,  in Uran, there was no electricity, water or telephone service. The only links with Bombay (now Mumbai) were the fishing boats  which plied when the weather was fair. The Sidhwa family owned large sheds in Uran to manufacture liquor from mogra and rose flowers, oranges and other fruits. Since the sheds lay idle after the British introduced prohibition, the tiles were produced in those sheds and travelled from there to all parts of India. As part of the Swadeshi movement, our founders pioneered the cement tiles industry in the country, producing tiles of international quality to replace imports, and building the company on the principles of quality, integrity and service. The founder of The Bharat flooring tile company in 1922 travelled across Europe and USA and bought the finest elements of this art form to India. They modifi...
