The nuts and bolts of creativity: a sculptor in Chennai experiments with unlikely material (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At first glance, it resembles a pile of wires. On closer look, the contours of a face become evident. That is the idea behind G. Sooriyamoorthy’s “The Imaginative Metal Wire Portrait of an Artist”, one of two sculptures he is preparing for Aurae Elemental, an art show where he will stage his experiments with unconventional materials and painstaking techniques spanning 26 years. His second work, “Within the Armour”, engaged with a different material and manages a distinct effect: nuts and bolts a
Park your car over your open well (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For many apartment residents in Chennai, an open well may sound like something from another time — a structure with a parapet wall, a pulley and a bucket. With space at a premium, keeping one may seem impractical. But an open well does not necessarily mean giving up a parking spot or valuable open space. With the right design, it can be built below ground, allowing vehicles to pass over it while the well continues to collect rainwater and recharge groundwater. This is what N. Ramshankar, an exec
Mamallan reservoir project: documentation as advocacy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Water moves in two directions across the Nemmeli coastal wetland — freshwater flowing east from inland lakes and tanks, and seawater moving inland through Muttukadu estuary.

Here is the outline of an answer to that. And it is being sketched by The Kraft Faktor, a small-batch handmade products brand, creating soaps, shampoos, perfumes, candles and home fragrances, that has over time tucked an experience-
Judge a purchase by its cover: how three enterprises in Chennai make sure packaging does not leave carbon footprints (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Packaging doubles as a brand statement. A clothing label at Karpagam Gardens in Adyar, Tula India has dispensed with the branding part and instead made packaging a statement about mindful choices. “We will ask customers to bring their own bags. Most of our customers do, and we’ll also educate them,” says Sushmitha R.K, designer at Tula India. The approach begins well before a garment reaches the store. Cotton is transported in airtight plastic sacks that are reused year after year, while woven f
