Tea,
famously called Chai, is unarguably one of the most consumed beverages in
India. The refreshing aroma and the prominent taste, from a roadside stall to a
5-star lobby, are enough to lift up your spirits and get you going. Hindustan
Uniliver has taken the tea drinking experience to a whole new level since the
launch of The Taj Mahal Tea House. A very coming of age cafe, The Taj Mahal Tea
House offers a variety of beverages, savouries and food dishes, some
surprisingly well crafted with blends of tea from across the world. However, a cafe needs to be more than just about the food. It also attracts loyalty
through elements like the ambiance, the service, the decor; and everything with
the right amount of class and creativity just works the magic.
Among the
most prominent of the aesthetics at The Taj Mahal Tea House are the tiles. A
combination of the Temple pattern Heritage™ tiles and Giza pattern by Bharat
Floorings and Tiles give the place a deserved appeal. The designs and the
colour combinations complement the architecture by none other than the renowned
Ayaz Basrai of Busride Design known for his inspiring designs and great
flexibility in approaching different projects. The tiles have been installed not only on the floor but also
on the walls of the cafe.
This not only ensures a sense of continuity and order but also adds character to
the place.
The entire
cafe has been worked with a combination of tiles from the Heritage™ collection. The 3D pattern tiles viz. Giza
serve to create a multi-dimensional effect floor. Origami, the ancient Japanese
art of folding papers was the prime inspiration for the tiles designed by
Busride. The Origami method serves as a base technique for creating fantastic
variations with a simple square sheet of paper, which instantly resonates with
the idea of a tile and the myriad forms that arise from intelligent uses of
orientation and pattern. This led to folding inspired shapes they call
‘Origametes’. For more
