The Benefits of Outdoor Activities for Health and Wellbeing

In our fast-paced modern lives, the rhythms of nature often seem distant, drowned out by the hum of technology, deadlines, and routines. Yet, there exists a quiet wisdom in the outdoors, a kind of ancient knowledge that speaks not through words, but through the subtle language of the wind, the rustle of leaves, and the soft lapping of water against the shore. The benefits of outdoor activities on health and wellbeing extend far beyond the physical realm; they touch upon the spiritual and psychological, helping us reconnect with both the world around us and the world within. The philosopher Henry David Thoreau, who famously retreated to the woods to live deliberately, once wrote, "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life." This deliberate confrontation with nature, this immersion in the outdoors, forces us to slow down, to become more present, and to awaken to the deeper truths about our own existence. It is in these ...

Design Concept

Design Concept Being a student architect, everyone including me has done the conceptual level of design wrong. Concept can be taken from anything found anywhere. It could be physically something, or a smell, or a color, or a text, or place, or even an animal. There is no prescribed source for thinking of a concept. The process of thinking and working out a concept into a design is the very important matter that highlights the design in which you are working. A design concept is the very basic idea and the foundation of a design from which design developments happens throughout a period of time.

For example, someone says, my concept is the fruit called Banana and this person tend to build a building in the shape of a Banana. Not that this design had seen a bad...

Design workspace is never conventional

Design workspace is never conventional I would love to compare the present Indian architecture to a typical romantic Indian film in which there is a hero, villian, the hero goes behind the heroine, the villian conduct occasional attack, the hero defeats the villian in the climax. There are couple of fight sequence, song and dance, and almost every Indian cinema is predictable today! Earlier, the audience never felt boring about the film quality, but they enjoyed the humors and lame jokes inside the film. But today's audience can not really love such film anymore. They need more practical and naturalistic elements. The space in which I have learnt designing was just a typical array of lintels and beams with regular typical arrangement of doors and windows. I do not really want to think the designer/engineer had really known the users inside, because from my personal experience, it is horrible. Just like Indian cinema, these spaces inside my college are just a typical space which can...
