Our Story
Discover the Evolution of Home Design with Bodega Style!
In the bustling streets of many cities, the term ‘Bodega’ resonates with familiarity. Beyond just a corner store, a Bodega is a cornerstone of the community, a symbol of trust, dependability, and a place that offers everything one needs, just around the block. In 2019, drawing from this ethos, Ana and Dimce Manev launched ‘Bodega Tile’. With 15 years of expertise in the tile industry, their vision was not just about trade; it was about building a trusted space for design aficionados.
As our range expanded, so did our identity. From Tiles to a spectacular ensemble of home essentials, our 13,000 sqft showroom became a design haven. With Lighting, Kitchen Cabinets, an indoor Countertop Slab Yard, Bathroom Vanities, Sinks, Flooring, Wallpaper, and the intricate Pulls and Knobs, our evolution was inevitable. We transformed from ‘Bodega Tile’ to ‘Bodega Style’, encapsulating the essence of a place where every home design need is met under one expansive roof.
Imagine a realm where your design dreams are given a palette, our seasoned designers guide your choices, and your home emerges as a masterpiece. Bodega Style isn’t just a showroom; it’s where imagination and reality converge. We invite you to join our community, where every space is a canvas and every design a story waiting to be told. Dive in, and let’s craft those stories together!
