Introduction

 Before the pandemic, Bhavna Furnitures had been operating as a B2B furniture supplier mainly to educational institutes
and business was booming. However, due to the lockdown they had to convert to a B2C model as their primary customers
were not operating. Initially, the work-from-home scenario created a problem for Bhavna Furnitures who felt that the
transition would be tough. Nevertheless, their product catalogue was large and customer service was very good. Locals
began to buy furniture from them and with rising popularity, people from nearby regions also started to visit their
showrooms.

 Initially they were only operating through whatsapp and printed catalogues but with the lifting of lockdown for the
foreseeable long-term future and increased popularity in B2C space, they found it would be prudent to create a website
for their catalogue. This project report is a study on the same, where the aim is to create a website for their business
within stipulated time and cost. The website must be attractive, simple to navigate, user friendly and must be able to
display entire catalogue in all available variations. The application will help to improve customer base size, automate
buying and viewing process and allow the organization to invest into high profile clients more immersively.
