Monday has never been the favourite day of my week. Come Monday and the only thing I want to do is head for some retail therapy online or even offline. Today in my frenzy to shut off my Monday blues, as I furiously surfed online, like a genie popped up www.zaarga.com, an online decor marketplace with a varied variety of stylish decor adornments.  

#Colour Pop Shopping
Colour no doubt is one of the most stunning and versatile design elements so if you want to stand out from the crowd then colour is without doubt your tool. At a macro level a neutral colour palette with statements of colour pops can give you your signature style. Whilst surfing on Zaarga, I found that the brand Vliving offers a varied mix of unique designs inspired by folk art and craft with a contemporary twist. You could choose from bright colour pops to even shades of monochorome with subtle touches of colour pops. This is a brew I would always recommend if you have an eclectic taste and like me tend to get bored with your decor real fast.




#Smart and Subtle Accessories Shopping
The right accessories are what forever captures my decor driven heart. It is in the little details does your artistic DNA triumph. The online resource on Zaarga are versatile with fascinating wine-glass markers, petit napkin rings, curtain tie-backs, coasters, tableware, tablecloth weights and many more embellishments.





# Bling Shopping
Highlights to decor by adding a garnish of bling breathes life and vigour into the space. Ornamenting the decor with stylish suggestions adds a stir and is a welcome entry specially in times when celebrations and festivities are in the air. I do plan to add some of it to welcome in the New Year soon.






 Browsing through smart catalogues of colour pops, well-thought bling, tableware, gift items and accessories all on one platform with a entourage of exciting brands and designs was the answer to enrich my miserable Monday. I am positive that it will go on to grab my attention for a while now. If your inquisition bugs are stirring you could promptly hop onto your gizmo and begin your search on http://www.zaarga.com/.

Every time I design a home, an office or any space there is this utopian craving, wishing that I could expand and elasticize the space by adding a few more inches. Though that fancy never really worked out what but I would want to share with you today are some tips to ways on how a small space could be hacked with clever designing to expand it's function to the brim.

In metropolitan cities, specially in the likes of Mumbai, living space is expensive and the available space has to be used creatively & effectively maximizing the utility. Simple briefs can often be harder than complex ones, but in this case the design team Intento, under the young lead of the principals Suvarna and Mandar Joshi, took up the challenge and came up with a comfortable decor where neutral colours where used to all moveable objects like side tables, cushions, paintings, photo frames and artifacts. Instead of the commonly used foldable furniture, see-through, elevated furniture were designed so that it does not obstruct the vision thus triumphing well over the space constraint. 




Like in this design, playfulness of vibrant accessories can be used in the small footprint of even a 470 square-foot apartment to add brisk and drama to it. Every inch of the space should be efficiently used incorporating all the functional requirements collaborated with trim aesthetics. In a tight space the the trick would be the balance of all design elements put together in tandem to look dapper as well as cater to the dynamics of all functions. 



The steps to designing a small space, with the feel of amazing expanse, is to carefully consider the space, purposefully design and position the furniture and derive space efficient solutions integrating each element to form a part of the larger design as has been successfully implemented and accomplished in the design we discussed today. So go ahead, get your creatives ticking and expand your living space.
