The Ideal Home and Garden

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK

-

What comes first to mind when you think of art? Paintings that hang on walls at home and galleries, and the sculptures that we see at museums? Think again! One art form that has been become increasing­ly popular among modern artists now is outdoor art installati­ons. A wonderful way of taking creativity outdoors, and blending art and environmen­t, to create beautiful experience­s for spectators. And it’s called Land Art or Earth Art as it combines landscape with works of art. Inspired by this, the team decided to dedicate one major feature curating outdoor space. Without any second thought we decided to give the feature to renowned curator Monica Jain who believes that the outdoors should not be permanent, just like our moods.

Do go through the piece on ways to beautify your garden, beyond flowers and foliage.

If you struggling for an interestin­g wall idea, we have that sorted in this issue. Nothing beats a beautiful carpet in adding warmth and style. The feature on ‘The New Wall Art’ is an insight for designs, patterns, colours, and style for wall carpets, to redefine the convention­al wall.

Last but not the least the climate is changing and it’s getting hotter with each day. Be careful and take all precaution­ary measures for your health every time you are going out in sun. Don’t forget to put together your checklist-sunglasses, sunscreen and your summer body.
