I have mixed emotions at the moment. This semester is my last, and I still have a tonne of work to complete. I'm working on the project's ultimate product, a 3D visualisation.

The project's goal is to transform an old, abandoned building into agricultural fields in the urban core and provide a space for the locals to gather, grow, and engage. The site is developed in two parts : the outside, or open land, and the inside, or the millennium mills' interior.

The building's interior is split into nine stories. I developed the ground-level, first-floor, and second-story of this project. As one approaches the ground level of the building, they are greeted with a double-height, enormous open area that serves as both a registration area and a display space for the site's notable artwork, celebrities who have visited, the history of the location, and other educational details. To preserve the true essence of the mill, the rough concrete texture has not been altered. Proceeding on, one finds a corridor that is divided by a brick jali wall, allowing one to perceive the depth of the building while simultaneously preventing entry to the other space.

I'm developing the design aspects while working on the ground floor. I'm hoping for luck to finish this project as soon as possible and in the best possible way.

With great pleasure, I present my bachelor's work. In 2018, I participated in a tempera workshop held in Banasthali Vidhyapith in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.

During that course, we learnt how to combine and make natural and organic colours, apply them to tiles, and prepare the base canvas for tempera painting, which is essentially formed of a cement and lime mixture.

Process of Tempera Painting:🖌️🎨

➡️Pigment Preparation: Pigments, often mineral or organic in nature, are ground into a fine powder.

➡️Medium Creation: The pigment is mixed with a water-soluble binder, traditionally egg yolk, to create the paint medium. The binder acts as an adhesive and gives the paint its characteristic matte finish.

➡️Application: Artists apply thin layers of tempera paint to a prepared surface, i.e., cement tile.

➡️Layering: Artists can build up layers to create depth and luminosity. The quick drying time allows for the application of multiple layers in a relatively short period.

➡️Detailing: The medium's ability to dry quickly enables artists to achieve intricate details and precise lines in their work.

In conclusion, tempera painting has a rich history that spans ancient civilizations to the Renaissance, and its importance lies in its durability, precision, and role in shaping the artistic landscape over the centuries. The process involves meticulous preparation of pigments, creating a paint medium, and applying layers to achieve the desired artistic effects.✨

Thrilled to share my studio project development work. I created a model of millennium mills which is an old abandoned structure on the Royal Victoria dockyard. The objective of this project is spatial intervention in the internal space by circularly carving off the building's facade to gain greater light and visibility of the column beam structure to the outside world without altering the building's structural integrity and keeping the facade as exists.

Experiments and testing.

Understanding the structure of Millennium Mills and spatial intervention within the space. The circular cut outs is to breakdown the rigidity of this industrial building and open up the space.

Margate History and Culture

Margate, a coastal town in the United Kingdom, boasts a rich history and vibrant culture. Its roots date back to the 18th century when it gained popularity as a seaside resort. The iconic Dreamland amusement park, established in 1920, is a testament to this era. Margate's culture is deeply influenced by its seaside setting, with artists like J.M.W. Turner drawing inspiration from its scenic beauty. The Turner Contemporary art gallery stands as a tribute to his legacy. Visitors can explore the historic Old Town, which is lined with charming shops and cafes. The golden sands of Margate Main Sands beach and the imposing Shell Grotto are other must-see attractions that make this town a delightful destination.

I'm thrilled to talk about my experience at London's Biggest Design Week 2023 in Chelsea Harbour's Design Centre. For more than 20 years, it has served as the centre of the design community, upholding the highest standards and continuously developing to support one of the most interesting sectors in the world. 120 showrooms and more than 600 foreign companies, including Tollgard, Flexform, Dedar, Ralph Lauren, Paroda, Vitra, Vaughan, Christian Lee, and others, were present.

As I begin my own journey of design exploration, I appreciate my time here.

I'm very excited to talk about my experiences at Clerkenwell Design Week 2023, which took place from May 23–25 in Clerkenwell, London. With more than 160 participating showrooms, this year's design week promises to be the largest yet. The event has enjoyed tremendous development. With more than 600 activities happening simultaneously, there is definitely something for everyone, which is what makes CDW so distinctive.

Design fields, Contract, Project, Light, Catapult, British Collection, Elements, Ceramics of Italy, Detail, Old Sessions House, and Platform were exhibition destinations where a variety of furniture, sanitary items, textiles, lighting, and other items linked to the business were on show.

It was a highly dynamic session where I got to know a lot of business executives, designers, and many other individuals who were also extremely kind and inviting.

I'm frequently asked why did I choose interior design? What aspect of this subject most interests me and keeps me motivated to keep going?

It feels distinct to me as a designer. This isn't a 9–5 job. However, it's what keeps me alive. Every day is new and fresh. Making new friends and working on various projects consistently inspire me and add colour to my life. If you appreciate what you're doing while working and learning, life gets easier.

Since this is my final semester and I'm almost done with my master's, I'm experiencing mixed feelings right now. I'm eager to take on new challenges and chances. However, I will miss being a student and the university.

I am delighted to present a selection of my studio work and the project realisation phase of my thesis.

Tate Modern, located in London, is a renowned contemporary art museum. Housed in a repurposed power station, it showcases an extensive collection of modern and contemporary art, including works by Picasso, Warhol, and Hockney. Its iconic Turbine Hall hosts innovative installations, making it a must-visit cultural destination in the city.

I went to the Tate Modern Exhibition Centre last week. The building's front was composed of a jali pattern of bricks with light-letting slots in the glass. It seemed so raw and contemporary. To allow attention to be drawn to the artworks, exposed concrete texture is employed on the walls and ceiling in the interior.

Situated in the far southeast of England, Folkestone is encircled by water. The bus ride from the Cantebrury bus terminal took me forty-five minutes. The location is peaceful, quiet, and near to nature. The most interesting aspect of the trip was the route to the marmaid beach, which had stone beaches and colourful Houses.

I'm thrilled and pleased to share a few photos from my trip to Dubai.

Dubai, a city in the United Arab Emirates, has seen a significant transformation. It used to be a little fishing community, but the 1960s oil discoveries helped it flourish. Dubai used its advantageous position and innovative leadership to establish itself as a major international business and travel centre.

I visited the Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall, and the surrounding area. Numerous communities and cultures were present in the gathering of people. In that location I saw  fountain performance  that I really appreciated. There were several eateries and cafes where you could enjoy fantastic cousins. The architecture, design, and concept underlying their creations fascinated me. It's an excellent case study of how we may enjoy Dubai's traditional culture while also seeing the future associated with technology.

I'm excited to share a few of the intriguing pictures I took when I was in Delhi, India.

I saw several historical sites, including the Humayun Tomb, Jantar Mantar, Red Fort, step wells, and others.

Humayun's Tomb, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a magnificent example of Mughal design and was built before the Taj Mahal. The elaborately designed mausoleum was built for Emperor Humayun and has a stunning garden as well as a notable red sandstone and white marble building.

Architecture is an excellent resource for learning about the past and for unlocking numerous historical stories.
