...non periodic oscillations...

In the past few years, I have had the opportunity to spend considerable time in a particular kind of built form that I have always wanted to design (only half a project so far) yet never wanted to be a resident or visitor of. As it happens, one has no choice in such matters. However, what I have come to realise is that there is always a silver lining and it is up to us to find it. While visiting one such space, I came across a very interesting set of paintings by two artists, Vanessa Bryson and Suse Neilebock. These paintings are inspired by different pieces of music and are intended to be experienced in both, tactile and visual form. Needless to say, it was quite pleasant to see them while walking through an otherwise dull corridor - sort of a “visual oasis”. #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #architecture #design #art #painting #music #hospital #oasis #silverlining

Find happiness and beauty, wherever you can, because the lack of empathy in our species is painful and heartbreaking.  #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #happiness #beauty #coronapandemic #empathy #stayhome #staysafe

A new year is upon us and with it comes hope for a joyous, prosperous and peaceful year ahead. I am lucky to have this lovingly designed calendar to adorn my table and bring the beauty of art into my “daily struggles”. The artwork, which are part of the “Footpath” series, are hand drawn by my (not so) little brother @dwarkanathsinha ( https://instagram.com/dwar.ka/ ) and the calendars are designed under AT and his independent design initiative called Unibrow ( http://unibrow.in ). Check out their website, Facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/unibrow.in/ ) and Instagram ( https://www.instagram.com/unibrow.in/ ) pages for more art. Have a lovely New Year ahead. Stay happy. Stay strong. Keep the love flowing. #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #architecture #design #art #unibrow #newyear #peaceful #calendar #calendar2020

A Christmas party. Lot of people, food, drinks and dancing. All below the hull of a ship! An eventful evening looking up at the lovingly restored Cutty Sark in Greenwich The "Cutty Sark is a British clipper ship. Built on the River Leven, Dumbarton, Scotland in 1869". Today, it is a museum and venue for events ( http://bit.ly/2EVIgks ). #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #architecture #design #christmas #dancing #party #ship #greenwich #cuttysark

A "warm" day, British rain, heavy lunch, Friday and a rainbow. Almost perfect. Almost. In the background, you can see "the Honourable Artillery Company, a charity set up by Henry VIII in 1537 to support the Regiment that shares its name. The historic venue is a place for current and ex-members of the Regiment to gather for social occasions and business meetings, but also serves as a unique venue for a wide range of non-member events." The ground is a regular helicopter "adda" too (www.hac.org.uk/). #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #finsbury #sun #rain #clouds #rainbow #FridayFeeling #notshotoniphone

Are you bored of going to regular salons? How about a shiny, blingy, mobile yet static salon in the middle of a busy plaza? Why not club your break with a trim, or something more adventurous maybe? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #salon #plaza #mobile #ArtOnTheCommute

Some pasta and a quick walk around The Barbican Estate made for a sumptuous lunch especially with the Sun coming out for a short yet strong innings. The Barbican Estate is "a residential estate that was built during the 1960s and the 1980s within the City of London in Central London, in an area once devastated by World War II bombings and today densely populated by financial institutions." (http://bit.ly/2Bh8Gex). It is a lovely example of Brutalist Architecture. "With its coarse concrete surfaces, elevated gardens and trio of high-rise towers, the Barbican Estate offered a new vision for how high-density residential neighbourhoods could be integrated with schools, shops and restaurants, as well world-class cultural destinations."

Today, more than ever, I am thankful to a lot of people who have been kind to us, in different ways. I pray that the sun shines upon all of you forever and enriches your lives, just like you have enriched ours. #delhi #shanghai #london #newadventures #explorechina #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #bekind #thankful #sunshine🌞

Cranes (of the ornithological variety) are considered to be a symbol of happiness, good health, eternal youth and longevity. Can this symbolism be applied to cranes of the inanimate (or are they animate) variety? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #CranesOfLondon #cranes #ornithological #symbolism

Hiding behind the blinds and staying very still was the only way to look at these beautiful birds from up close. Perks of being in the countryside. #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #fauna #birds #countryside #littlebealings #woodbridge

New city. New experiences. Glimpses from our walk through the city yesterday, filled with the sun blessing us intermittently while the cold wind froze our fingers. An unplanned walk through a lunch time pop up food market, and Brick Lane with its mouth watering food joints, graffiti, and hot chocolate apart from some interesting built, and unbuilt spaces. Is it normal to get excited by the sight of a tower crane, reaching out into the sky while holding onto the skeletal framework of an under construction building? #london #newadventures #exploreuk #nonperiodicoscillations #walk #sun #popup #food #bricklane #graffiti #chocolate #crane #construction
