Minimalism in Interior Design
Minimalism is no longer a short-lived fad. It has evolved into a lifestyle—a deliberate choice to live with purpose, clarity, and peace. Minimalist interiors offer a sanctuary in today’s noisy world, both visually and mentally. They go beyond appearances, creating environments that foster clear thinking, easy movement, and a profound sense of belonging.

From Paint to Power: How Sotheby’s and Christie’s Made Art a Billionaire’s Playground
Inside the secretive world where canvases become currency. The hammer falls, the gavel echoes, and in less than a second, millions change hands. To the uninitiated, an art auction may look like a glamorous spectacle — elegant bidders raising paddles, champagne flutes in hand, masterpieces flashing on stage under golden lights. But beneath the polish lies a marketplace as strategic, competitive, and opaque as Wall Street.

Lost at Sea, Found in Love
The sea at Amanful, Takoradi, has a particular smell. It is not just salt and brine, but a deep, ancient aroma of fish, damp wood, hot bitumen from the nearby harbour, and the distant, sweet promise of rain on dry earth. It was a smell Kofi Mensah knew as intimately as his own heartbeat. He was a fisherman, not by choice but by blood—a lineage of men who understood the language of the waves and the secrets whispered in the nets.

When the Ocean Forgot Its Name
The morning began as it always did. The fisherman, Kareem, rose before dawn, his bones heavy but his spirit sharpened by habit. He pushed his small boat out into the black-blue water, oars slicing the stillness like knives through silk. For thirty years the sea had fed him, soothed him, listened to his silence.

Did you ever think? 🤔
There was a time when you sat in silence, your head resting in your hands, the weight of everything pressing down. You remember those moments, don’t you? When all you could do was sigh and hope that somehow, something would change. You asked yourself if you would ever make it through. If the light would ever find its way back to you. If peace was even possible.

Echoes in Color
In Lahore, where the call to prayer weaves through the morning air and rickshaws weave through traffic like stubborn thoughts, lived a boy named Rehan. He was seventeen, soft-spoken, and carried the quiet intensity of someone who sees more than they say. His hands were always stained—blues under the nails, ochre on his wrists, charcoal smudged at the edge of his palm. Paint wasn’t just something he used; it was something he lived with, like breath.

Colors of Her Silence
Meher was never loud. Not in voice, not in presence. As a child, while others ran and laughed, she sat with a pencil and paper, tracing the world around her—the curve of a leaf, the shadow on a wall, the way light fell through the window at different times of day. Words never came easily, but lines did. Colors, too.

AI killed my coding brain but I’m rebuilding it.
In recent years, artificial intelligence has revolutionized the way we work, learn, and solve problems. In the realm of programming, AI-powered tools like code autocompleters, intelligent debuggers, and even full code generators have made writing software faster and easier than ever. While these tools can be incredibly helpful, there’s a growing number of developers—including myself—who feel that leaning too heavily on AI has dulled their own coding instincts and problem-solving skills. In other words, AI killed my coding brain. But I’m not giving up; I’m rebuilding it.

The Accidental Artist
Vikram Sharma had never considered himself creative. Not really. Sure, he once tried making samosas from scratch and nearly set off the smoke alarm, but that was more chaos than artistry. At forty, he worked at a bank, wore the same shade of blue shirt every Monday, and found excitement in perfectly aligned sticky notes.
