A Turning Point

 "Papa, why have you been typing on your phone for so long? I need the phone to play games." said little Ishan in a mildly irritated tone. 

"I'm sending an office mail Ishu, wait for some time", said Anand. 

"Why don't you use voice typing, here, let me show you!", said Ishan excitingly, snatching the phone from his Papa. 

Holding the big touchscreen phone in his little hands, he held the voice typing button dexterously and started dictating. "I am Ishan. I am teaching Papa how to use phone smartly. "

Anand burst into laughter watching the brilliance of his little kid. 

Anand was in his mid-thirties and already a Senior Manager in a big tech company in Bangalore. His wife Amruta was a 'work-for-home' mom which was a full-time job itself except she never got any leaves. Little Ishan was a smart kid studying in Third grade. He recently started going to school after attending Online classes almost for two years. Anand's parents lived in their native village and used to visit once or twice a year. The city life never suited them well. 

The family of three had to start their day quite early. Waking up Ishan early in the morning was a challenge. Amruta prepared breakfast and packed tiffin for both Anand and Ishan, while it was Anand's duty to get Ishan ready and drop him to the school bus. Soon after, Anand used to leave for office in his car which was pretty nearby. Amruta used to be all by herself till afternoon till Ishan returns from school. After all household chores are over, smartphone and TV were her best friends. She actually enjoyed this little 'me-time' that she got. After returning from office in the evening, Anand would sit in front of TV watching the stock market news with a cup of tea in one hand while mobile phone in other. This routine of the family rarely changed. 

One day though this routine got deviated when Anand's car met with a minor accident while returning from office. There was a small dent and few scratches on the car. Anand decided to give the car to nearby service station for repair and head home walking instead. 

While walking down the street, something caught his attention. There was a makeshift toy shop on the footpath below a Pipal tree. Colorful, shiny wooden toys from Channapattna. Different kind of spinning toys, Chinese dolls, musical toys and a train set...

It reminded him of his childhood's wooden train set. 

A piece of art it was. Different types of wagons made of wood with vibrant shiny colors. The wagons were connected together with rounded magnets on the end so that train could turn freely on the curved track. The train was pulled by a motorized metal colored locomotive which would whistle periodically. He recollected how happy he was when his father brought this train set. He had hugged his father tightly and thanked him profusely. Anand wouldn't let anyone touch his special toy and took great care of it. His father would set up the train set for him, carefully joining the tracks together and launching the wagons on the tracks. Once the train would start moving, Anand would also run along the train whistling happily. It was one of the fondest memories of his childhood and he always cherished this time spent with his father.  He could not remember though what happened to this train after he moved to different city for college. 

And alas! Here it was now, a similar train set. Anand beamed with joy. Without a second thought, he bought it. He had no doubt that Ishan would love it as well. Anand got it packed carefully, wrapped in a gift paper and set straight to home. He was eager to present this wonderful toy to Ishan. He was hoping to have great time with Ishan playing this train as he had with his father once.

"At least something good came out of today's misfortune", Anand thought to himself. 

When he reached home, he started looking for his beloved Ishu, hiding the present behind his back. Ishan was in his room playing mobile games as usual. 

"Look Ishu, what I brought for you!", said Anand happily. 

"Is it what I think it is Papa?", Ishan asked giggling and jumped off the bed hurriedly to open the gift. 

Ishan tore the gift paper to see what is inside and his face fell. 

"Do you not like it, Ishu?", asked Anand confusingly. 

"It is nice Papa, but I thought you got me the iPad Pro that I wanted.", Ishan confessed. 

And then it hit Anand... Their lives revolved around gadgets. He could not remember when the last time was that he played with his son or had a hearty conversation with his wife. Little Ishan already had spectacles due to excess screentime. Due to lockdown, homes became office cubicles and school, mere videos. Catching up with the latest new, fear of missing out on something kept them hooked to the social media. Mindlessly scrolling through the Youtube shorts became a habit. They all had got so engulfed in technology that they forgot the meaning of companionship.  Anand was disheartened but he was awakened now. 

Anand held the cup of tea in one hand again, but this time, in his other hand, he held the hand of Amruta instead and asked her "How was your day?", with a gentle smile on his face.

Creating a Welcoming Entryway: Ideas and Inspiration by WeDezine

At WeDezine, we believe your home's entryway is more than just a functional space—it's a powerful first impression that reflects your personality and sets the tone for the rest of your home. Our team of experienced interior designers in Bangalore specializes in transforming entryways into captivating spaces that are both beautiful and practical. In this blog, we’ll share our top ideas and inspirations to help you create a welcoming entryway that leaves a lasting impact.

1. Start with a Signature Rug that Speaks Style

One of our favorite ways to define an entryway is with a stunning rug that adds both color and comfort. A rug not only frames the space but also introduces texture and warmth, instantly making your entryway more inviting. At WeDezine, we recommend rugs made from durable materials like jute or wool for high-traffic areas. Opt for a design that complements your home’s aesthetic—whether it’s a modern geometric pattern, a traditional Persian rug, or a minimalist monochrome.

2. Illuminate with Custom Lighting Solutions

Lighting is key to creating a warm and welcoming entryway. Our WeDezine team often integrates a mix of ambient and accent lighting to add depth and dimension. Consider a statement pendant or chandelier for overhead lighting, paired with a sleek wall sconce or a stylish table lamp for softer, ambient light. If natural light is available, we help you maximize it with sheer drapes or strategically placed mirrors to amplify brightness and create a sense of space.

3. Functional Furniture Tailored to Your Needs

A practical entryway starts with the right furniture. WeDezine focuses on combining style with function by selecting pieces like console tables, benches, and storage units that fit seamlessly into your space. A custom-built console or a sleek, floating shelf can provide a designated spot for keys, mail, and other essentials. Benches or ottomans not only add seating but also provide hidden storage for shoes, umbrellas, and bags—helping to keep your entryway clutter-free.

4. Personalize with Art and Accessories

Your entryway should be a reflection of who you are. At WeDezine, we love to incorporate unique art pieces, family photos, or travel mementos that add character and tell a story. Think of your entryway as a curated gallery—a place where your personality shines. We can help you create a striking focal point with a statement piece of artwork or a gallery wall that blends different frame styles and sizes for a dynamic, layered effect.

5. Use Mirrors to Expand and Brighten

Mirrors are a secret weapon in interior design, especially for entryways. They create an illusion of space and help bounce light around, making even the smallest entryway feel more expansive. At WeDezine, we often choose mirrors with unique frames—be it vintage-inspired gilded frames, sleek metal designs, or rustic wooden accents—that complement your home's overall aesthetic. The right mirror can act as a statement piece while serving a practical purpose.

6. Bring in Greenery for a Breath of Fresh Air

Nothing breathes life into a space quite like plants. WeDezine suggests incorporating greenery into your entryway to add a natural, calming touch. Whether it’s a statement fiddle-leaf fig, a collection of small succulents, or a hanging plant arrangement, greenery can enhance the welcoming feel of your entryway. We also help you choose plant varieties that thrive in your entryway’s light conditions, ensuring they remain lush and vibrant year-round.

7. Smart Storage Solutions to Keep Clutter at Bay

A well-organized entryway feels instantly more welcoming. Our design experts at WeDezine specialize in creating custom storage solutions tailored to your space. Think built-in shelves, bespoke cabinets, or creatively designed wall hooks that keep your entryway tidy and functional. Stylish baskets or bins can also provide hidden storage for shoes, toys, or other daily essentials, maintaining a clean, open look.

8. Set the Mood with a Coordinated Color Palette

The color palette you choose for your entryway can dramatically affect its ambiance. At WeDezine, we work with you to select colors that reflect your style while harmonizing with the rest of your home. Light, neutral tones can create a serene, airy environment, while bold hues like deep blues, greens, or even black can add a sophisticated, dramatic touch. We also consider how lighting and natural elements in your entryway interact with your chosen colors to create a cohesive look.

9. Utilize Vertical Space Creatively

Entryways often have limited floor space, so make the most of the vertical space with creative solutions. WeDezine's designs often include floating shelves, wall-mounted storage, and decorative hooks that provide function without sacrificing style. Consider a tall, narrow bookshelf or a vertical garden to add visual interest and maximize every inch of your entryway.

10. Make It Yours with Unique Personal Touches

Finally, your entryway should feel like a true extension of your home. WeDezine helps you infuse your entryway with personal touches that make it truly yours. Whether it’s a bespoke welcome mat, a custom sign, or a cherished family heirloom, these elements can make the space feel more personal and welcoming. Our goal is to create a space that not only looks beautiful but also feels like home every time you walk through the door.

How to Choose the Best House Builder in HSR Layout Bangalore

Finding the right Chandrakantha house builder in HSR Layout Bangalore, can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. With so many options, how do you narrow it down? Let’s explore some straightforward steps to help you pick the perfect builder for your dream home.

Understand Your Needs and Vision

What do you want your home to look like? Before diving into builder options, take a moment to visualize your dream. Do you fancy a cozy cottage vibe or a modern, sleek design? Knowing what you want can help you find a builder who aligns with your vision.

Research Local Builders in HSR Layout

You wouldn’t buy the first car you see, right? The same goes for house builders. Start by researching builders in HSR Layout. Look for those with experience in constructing homes that match your preferred style. Check online reviews and testimonials; they’re like gold nuggets of information.

Check Credentials and Experience

A builder's credentials are their badge of honor. Look for licenses, certifications, and memberships in professional organizations. An experienced builder has likely faced various challenges and knows how to tackle them. They’re like seasoned chefs, ready to whip up a culinary masterpiece – or in this case, your dream home.

Review Their Portfolio

Before committing to a builder, check out their past projects. A strong portfolio showcases their style and quality of work. It’s like browsing a gallery before buying art; you want to see if their creations resonate with your taste. Ask for references too, and don’t shy away from contacting previous clients.

Evaluate Communication Skills

Communication is key in any relationship, and working with a builder is no different. A good builder should listen to your ideas and respond clearly. Are they open to questions? Do they explain processes well? This open line of communication can prevent misunderstandings down the road.

Discuss Budget and Transparency

Money matters. It’s crucial to discuss your budget early on. A reliable builder will provide a detailed estimate and be transparent about costs. This way, you can avoid surprises that might blow your budget. Think of it like a road trip; you want to know how much gas will cost before hitting the road.

Look for Quality Materials and Craftsmanship

A great builder doesn’t just focus on the structure; they pay attention to details. Inquire about the materials they use and their construction methods. Quality construction is vital for longevity. It’s like choosing between a plastic toy and a solid wooden one; one will last longer and stand the test of time.

Check for Warranty and After-Support

Imagine moving into your new home only to find issues a few months later. A trustworthy builder will offer warranties on their work. Ask about after-sales support too. This ensures you have someone to turn to if problems arise post-construction. It’s like having a safety net while juggling – it provides peace of mind.

Trust Your Instincts

After gathering all this information, trust your gut feeling. Sometimes, it’s not just about facts and figures. The right builder should make you feel comfortable and confident in your choice. Think of it like picking a travel buddy; you want someone who makes the journey enjoyable.

Conclusion: Your Dream Home Awaits

Choosing the villa builders in bangalore, doesn’t have to be daunting. By understanding your needs, researching thoroughly, and trusting your instincts, you’ll be well on your way to finding a builder who can turn your dream home into a reality. Remember, this is more than just a construction project; it’s about building a space where memories will flourish. Happy building!

Furniture Trends for 2024: What's Hot and What's Not in Kids' Room Design

As we step into 2024, the world of kids' room design is evolving with exciting new trends that blend functionality, style, and sustainability. Whether you're shopping for kids' furniture online or visiting kids' furniture stores, it’s essential to stay updated with the latest trends to create spaces that are both fun and practical for your little ones. Here's a look at what's hot and what's not in kids' room design for 2024, with insights from Alex Daisy, a leading brand in kids' furniture in Bangalore and beyond.

 What's Hot in Kids' Room Design for 2024

 1. Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Materials

One of the biggest trends for 2024 is a shift towards sustainability. Parents are increasingly conscious of the environmental impact of their purchases. Brands like Alex Daisy are leading the way by offering eco-friendlymade from sustainable materials such as bamboo, reclaimed wood, and non-toxic paints. These materials are not only good for the planet but also safe for children.

 2. Multifunctional Furniture

Space-saving and multifunctional furniture continues to be a top trend. In 2024, expect to see more innovative designs like beds with built-in storage, study tables that double as play areas, and convertible furniture pieces that can adapt as your child grows. This trend is especially popular among parents shopping for kids' furniture online, where space optimization is often a key consideration.

 3. Personalized and Customizable Pieces

Personalization is a significant trend in 2024. Parents want their children's rooms to reflect their unique personalities. Customizable furniture options, such as beds with interchangeable headboards, desks with adjustable heights, and furniture that can be painted or decorated according to the child’s preferences, are in high demand. Alex Daisy offers a range of customizable kids' furniture, allowing for creative and personalized room designs.

 4. Neutral and Pastel Color Palettes

While vibrant colors have always been a staple in kids' room design, 2024 is seeing a move towards more neutral and pastel color palettes. Soft hues like mint green, blush pink, and pale blue create a calm and soothing environment, which is ideal for both play and rest. These colors also provide a versatile backdrop that can grow with the child and be easily updated with new accessories.

 5. Nature-Inspired Themes

Bringing the outdoors inside is another popular trend. Nature-inspired themes featuring elements like forest murals, animal motifs, and botanical prints are making a splash in kids' room design. This trend not only makes the room aesthetically pleasing but also instills a love for nature in children. Alex Daisy’s nature-themed furniture pieces are perfect for creating a whimsical and educational space for kids.

 What's Not in Kids' Room Design for 2024

 1. Overly Themed Rooms

While themed rooms can be fun, overly themed designs are becoming less popular. Parents are opting for more versatile and timeless designs that can evolve with their child’s changing tastes and interests. Instead of a full superhero or princess-themed room, a few themed accessories can add character without overwhelming the space.

 2. Excessive Clutter

Minimalism is making its way into kids' room design. Cluttered spaces with too many toys and furniture pieces are out. The focus is on creating open, airy spaces that allow for movement and creativity. Storage solutions that keep toys and books neatly organized are essential, and multifunctional furniture helps reduce the need for multiple pieces.

 3. Plastic Furniture

Plastic furniture, while often cheaper and colorful, is falling out of favor due to environmental concerns and a preference for more durable and sustainable materials. Parents are choosing wooden furniture for its longevity, safety, and aesthetic appeal. Alex Daisy’s wooden furniture pieces are designed to last, providing both style and substance.

 4. Bright Primary Colors

The use of bright primary colors (red, blue, yellow) is decreasing. Instead, parents are favoring softer, more sophisticated color schemes. This shift reflects a broader trend towards creating spaces that are calming and conducive to both rest and play.

 5. Fixed, Non-Adjustable Furniture

Furniture that doesn't adapt to a child’s growth is becoming less popular. Parents are investing in adjustable furniture that can accommodate their child’s changing needs. Desks with adjustable heights, extendable beds, and modular storage units are preferred for their versatility and long-term usability.

 Conclusion

The trends for 2024 in kids' room design emphasize sustainability, functionality, and personalization. Whether you're purchasing kids' furniture in Bangalore or visiting kids' furniture stores, brands like Alex Daisy offer a range of stylish and practical options. By choosing eco-friendly materials, multifunctional pieces, and customizable designs, you can create a beautiful, adaptable, and safe space for your children. Embrace these trends to ensure your kids' rooms are both on-trend and timelessly appealing.

Scenes from the Bangalore Literature Festival

Jasmina Tesanovic:

I still have Indian dust on my shoes from the city of Bangalore, where I spent almost a week at the international literary festival.

I was mind-boggled at the scale of this national Indian event: literature, politics, activism, feminism. There was music and even street art, but what a crowd. Sixteen thousand highly literate participants, roaming from one outdoor stage to another, and engaged with every atom of their souls.

Literary culture persists in this part of the world, where people still believe that leafing through books is a transformative spiritual experience that can change the world.

Authors of the first world, beset with Internet and economic crisis, often seem like plastic vanity-toys kept past their sell-by date, but maybe what they lack most keenly is a creative readership. As a passionate reader, I often claim it is more difficult to read a book well than it is to to write one. As a less passionate writer, I know that even one ideal reader is enough to motivate a decent book.

The beautiful literary carnival -- held on the broad, leafy grounds of one of Bangalore’s finest hotels, an oasis of glamor and privilege -- contrasted with the crooked streets of Bangalore where the sacred cows, pariah dogs and torrents of honking traffic live with a passion for survival. This was not my first visit to India, so I was ready for the epic scale of grandeur and abject poverty, but it was still a culture shock.

The jet-set’s digitized skyscrapers tower like phantoms over vast bazaars seething with a seize-the-day human vitality. It’s reflected in Indian literature, where the English language, global yet somehow frail, towers over sixteen vernacular publishing scenes. In the Bangalore festival, professional writers traded erudite quips in English because thats how one gets it done, but they were singing in the English-speaking choir, and they knew it. The seething, vibrant life in those modern Indian streets, half chopped coconuts and half cellphone components, is never taught at Oxford.

All over the world we women haunt conflict zones, and India, which is vast, has plenty of them. The gunfire tends to sound the same but the conclusions are different. The national patriot woman works to support her brave men at war; the peace activist withdraws support from men who aren’t brave enough to refuse the uniform and leave the slaughterhouse. There is one common ground, though: whether life is called “peace” or “war,” the women always struggle in a trench.

The ongoing #metoo scandal in India is briskly spreading all over the country through social media. It started with celebrities -- actresses and directors, but spread through media centers, universities, publishing, wherever women get sexually harassed by wealthy and powerful men, which is to say, all over the place. It’s evidence that complaints of Western feminism have a universality, and wherever women don’t speak up about the suffering of women, it’s not because the oppressions aren’t noticed; it’s because the complaints are repressed. It’s taboo to speak up, and even a small distance in cultural mores can make the speakable unspeakable.

Women are keenly attuned to what can be said in what conditions. At the festival, one female mystery writer complained that she simply can’t bear to read a “classic English whodunnit novel” which is set in Scotland. All those careful cultural assumptions about who gets battered to death by the butler with the fire iron, they are fine in a homey English county but just don’t work in distant Glasgow, which seems as incongruous as Bangalore, almost. This may be indeed be a literary problem, but it doesn’t explain why crime and detective fiction thrives inside India for Indians, because it does.

At the festival, a female science fiction writer complained: why must I be targeted as a woman when I write fiction about science? I may be a biological woman, but why should that restrict what I can write? I remembered that as a young writer, and as a young woman, I shared her frustration, but I gave it up as soon as I realized that my writing didn’t emerge from some gender-neutral science laboratory.

When women were not on the page, it was an absence. My favorite writers of novels missed the women's perspective. My own life experience was visibly missing from classical novels. The women characters were lame, my world was not that world of canonic literary classics, I was invisible there, and not withstanding the fact that literature was my safe place, and a source of worldly education, I was miserable. I had no power, I had no words. My experience and wisdom had not been captured in those novels I read. It was in my body, as in every other living woman through history, outside of genre, in a gender gap.

As a woman without a fatherland and without a mother language, my own literature had to be born ante literam. The luxury of writing without a gender also has a gender, it is male “mainstream.” But the stream is not the ocean, and dams can break.

In Bangalore I did a “book signing” without books! My books have never been in print in India, but I do have website with many of my books online, and an old fashioned pen in my hand. A handshake, a signature, and a hug for a book from a website address! It was fair barter.

Bangalore has many temples, small and big, fancy and clean, awkward and trashy. The whole city conveys the impression of a temple on the move. The pavements are broken by banyan roots, the skies are speckled with vultures, the soil is overrun by small but aggressive striped squirrels, so watch your step!

The traffic is Los Angeles times ten, with no lane or crossing discipline. Pedestrians including the numerous cows and dogs simply amble through the noisy torrent of motor-rickshaws, endless scooters, bikes ringing, cars honking, trucks blasting. Traffic policemen occasionally shake-down the worst offenders, who can either appear in court or else cough up half the cash on the spot, for cop’s pocket. Somehow the whizzing vehicles respectfully avoid killing elderly women and small children.

In the old summer palace of the Sultan Tipu, a historic structure which in Italy would be guarded relentlessly with video cams, the local people sat on the gleaming wooden stairs, meditating, solemn. A little girl danced as endlessly as an extra in a Bollywood movie, gently applauded by her neighbors.

It is a densely crowded, communal life in India. Most every task that might be done by one person in the West is parceled out among three or four people, then performed for an audience.

In a coffee shop I simply asked for a cold soda. The waiter conveyed the request to the boss; the owner gave the waiter a key to the refrigerator; another waiter opened the fridge, yet another retrieved the bottle and, finally, my original waiter, with a flourish, brought it to me, opened it and carefully poured it out for me. Then I drank it in a rather showy fashion, because, after all that fuss, I felt obliged.

People want to listen and to serve: in my hotel the Don’t Disturb sign is replaced by the written board: Please let us clean the room soon, our pleasure is to serve you. As a writer, as an activist, I confess I feel much the same.

I feel edified and cleansed after being in Bangalore. In India, people check on your condition all the time, emotionally and materially. Then they certify your stay with a nice red stamp, ink in your passport, or henna on your body.

Purity of Life!!

To start, the lotus has a life cycle unlike any other plant. With its roots latched in mud, it submerges every night into river water and miraculously re-blooms the next morning, sparklingly clean. In many cultures, this process associates the flower with rebirth and spiritual enlightenment. With its daily process of life, death, and reemergence, its no wonder that the lotus holds such symbolism.
