Spark your entrepreneurship –play the Startup Game| Photovoltaic ice skating rink| Traditional joinery revived in furniture design| and more

Technology is making new inroads and the multitude interested in the building industry and architecture seems to be growing – our readers are growing and we are growing with them. It is a learning curve – as we explore some new tangents of content presentation, we request your constructive feedback in helping us up the quotient. Do continue to write in and tell us what you like, dislike, want-more-of and do-not-want. Your suggestions and comments are instrumental in maintaining the balance of our relationship.

Meanwhile, this week the focus is on ‘revival’ and ‘technology’ – opposite poles. Whilst the Gounod Apartments and the patio design by Martine Brisson bring out the best of both worlds – historic and modern, this young designer Rooshad Shroff, who has travelled far and is in-the-now, goes back to traditional methodology in an attempt to elevate art!

Taking technology to the highest of prospects is the ice skating rink by Ar. Margot Krasojević, whose cutting-edge design complements her strategic design thinking to the core. Wonder whether we are looking at another Zaha Hadid in the making?!

And lastly check out the Startup Game. It is fun; can be inspiring and definitely a great help in shedding your inhibitions and helping you think openly and freely.

Until next week, ciao!

Warmly,
