Architect Akhil Kumar and his daughter invited me over for a beautiful preview of their collection that comes up at the Annual Exhibition of
Khoj ...
... walking down the steps to the design studio ... is as close I think I can experience the joy that Aladdin or Alibaba felt ... and in case you have in mind to pick up a special piece ... be ready to be completely bombed ...
... the pieces you will get to see are all created with love and passion by Akhil ... talk to him and you'll know what I mean. He picks up his raw inspiration pieces from all over the country through his travels ... and one can make out how he respects the value of these pieces he picks up ... his creativity gives a fresh breath to each one ...
... what I also loved was that he uses ethnic Indian textiles for the upholstery ... lovely striking colors ...and if you too love Indian textiles ... wow ... Mansi his daughter is adding a stunning range of Kaccha Topa textiles to the exhibition ...
... if these beautiful pictures are anything to go by ... then be ready for some more posts on my blog about my love for the Kaccha Topa textiles ... I need to discover more ...
In case you are in the Delhi ... NCR region ... mark ... 15-16 th Oct. 2010 , 10.30 a.m onwards ... and head to Gurgaon ... Khoj is located at ... A-30/2 ,Dlf Phase -1, Gurgaon ... behind DT Maga mall ...

Hope all of you who get to visit it have loads of stories to share back here with me ... :)
