Weekend Window Shopping

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">A lazy Sunday and some weekend shopping. Online stores  like Shopo, Afday and Unwrap India gives you a wide range of options  to chose from. Each shop has their clear presence felt in the market with their style of personality. Treating myself to something nice at the shops left me with a positive impact on mood.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://shopo.in/">Shopo</a> doesn't need any introduction. Its fun and colourful and a market place for anything and everything you desire. Based in Chennai with a team of 2, their effort definitely needs to be congratulated. Handpicked designers sell their stuff online through shopo. They take care of logistics too,  a face to sellers also that gives a trust to the buyers.</div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;

Blue horizons

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: justify;">The house of the Noted Interior designer "Rohini Shankar" in the confines of chennai is literally a blue coloured abode.She has tried and incorporated her favourite colour in whatever possibilities in her small space.She does it with windows,glass panes,crockery,ceramics,curtains,paintings and in whatever way it is possible.She has opened the rooms to the garden ,a lush tropical extravaganza.All murals and paintings are by the famous personalities like Henri Rousseau.A wrought iron staircase has been painted in the signature blue.The blue hue runs through the house.Dramatic juxtapositions of colours. From the mezzanine one can see the painting by Chandra Bhattacharjee. The head in granite is by Rajasekharan Nair and the ladder also seems to play a part in the design.If a home can speak of the owner,the this house will shout that its the home of an art aficianodo. She has also used an eclectic mix of furniture along with the modern minimalism.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><br /><br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

They have been fortunate to work on various fabrics from the simple and elegant to the exquisite, sourced from across the country. Their efforts have now culminated in the “Textile Archive” – a space for preserving, displaying and learning all about textiles and design.With Integral Design, they have also been consciously involved in various projects in design and more - trying to raise design to a level beyond the product and applying it to answer various problems of everyday life and social development.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 15px;">Upasana has always exciting projects.They have two brands named <a href="http://www.upasana.in/kapas">Paruthi</a> and <a href="http://www.upasana.in/varanasi-weavers">Devayani</a>.Paruthi is for the cotton textiles, from Organic cotton and Devayani is from the Varanasi Weavers.They also have a project named Tsunamika for the Tsunami hit and <a href="http://www.upasana.in/small-steps">Small steps</a> for the freedom from plastic bags.Tsunamika has so far been the most successful and fulfilling socially  responsible communication design intervention for Upasana</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 15px;">.</span></div><div><div class="normaltext" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="normaltext" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://sage.brahma.neokrish.co.in/files/projpic_tsunamika_01%281%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="200" hspace="10" src="http://sage.brahma.neokrish.co.in/files/projpic_tsunamika_01%281%29.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; text-align: right;" width="190" /></a><a href="http://sage.brahma.neokrish.co.in/files/projpic_tsunamika_02%281%29.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" height="200" hspace="10" src="http://sage.brahma.neokrish.co.in/files/projpic_tsunamika_02%281%29.jpg" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-color: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; text-align: left;" width="190" /></a></div><div class="normaltext" style="background-color: white; color: #464646; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #464646; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The little Tsunamikas: mamma, sister and baby have touched millions of hearts offering a healing touch to those directly affected by the devastating Tsunami of 2004, and a balm to those who suffered the secondary trauma through the media; watching, reading and hearing about the calamity. Tsunamika brought a smile to her creators and to those who held her; transforming the bitter memories of the tsunami into something creative, innocent, simple, sweet and empowering.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; line-height: 15px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #464646;">The project started as a trauma counseling effort for the fisherwomen in February 2005. Like all other projects of Upasana, Tsunamika took to a life of joy. The raw material came from industrial waste and 500 women were taught to make the dolls. Consequently, 200 women took it up for their livelihood. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; line-height: normal;">Following a “Gift Economy” Tsunamikas have never been bought or sold. They are shared, unconditionally; they are gifts of love and friendship. The whole project runs on donations, whole-hearted outpourings as Upasana has experienced. </span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;
