Chill Pill

There is a disturbance in your body,
ripples of restlessness ,
made by a hundred thousand stones,
in a pond of possibility.

there is so much to see,
so much to learn,
so much to think,
in just eye's blink.

its kind of window shopping,
no money with you,
hopping and hopping,
till you turn blue.

think for a second,
what do the stones do,
what happens to the pond,
and what happens to the mind.

How am I into Design?

Design.
What is it? Who is a designer? Who is not a designer?....
There are innumerable questions and there innumerable+1 solutions on the internet.

Design for me is creativity on a purpose.
The creative ideas , your artistic nature , blend into a solution for a purpose.

It is a choice I have made by exploring the various fields that use creativity and do some great stuff for people to use, learn , or simply make their life easy.

I spent lot of months learning about advertising , applied arts however I was introduced to the whole lot of possibilities in Design.

Design is art + science.

From childhood I was interested in exploring artifacts it may be that old radio, or vacuum cleaner. To see whats inside , to see how it works.

Believe me computer machine is amazing. Games, music , softwares etc.

Photoshop was the tool for me to replace "heads" of people , morph images, travel all over the world.

After few years I started writing copy for my visuals to make Ads. Meaningful?
Yeah! Then it got improved and appreciated and a good opportunity changed it all!

www.dzineduo.com (my start up!) and freelance works glued me to advertising and design lately!

Of course there are lot of people behind this, their encouragement and support is the key ingredient without which I would not have discovered my life!

Today I am proud to be in World's Top 30 D-schools (www.nid.edu) and India's No.1 to realize design dreams.

Lets see how it goes!

For Youngsters in the economic crisis

  1. This is the right time for young professionals to go on a financial diet, preparing a routine prescription for a healthy life for the times ahead.
  2. “If you are paying too many EMIs on account of impulsive purchases, foreign tours and housing, first write off the liability breaking your fixed deposits or emptying your savings accounts,”
  3. total amount of EMIs should not exceed 40 per cent of a two-member family’s net monthly income. In absence of home loan EMI, it must not exceed 20-25 per cent.
