Karfule is the only Art Deco petrol pump in Mumbai and one of two (Construction House is the other) buildings in Ballard Estate built in the late 1930s. The kiosk-like structure, with its octagonal canopy and star-shaped terrazzo tiles in the interior, was designed by GB Mhatre and Architectural Studio, one of the most prolific Art Deco architects of the era.
