One of my very favorite design bloggers, Priya Iyer of Once Upon a Tea Time, has created her own magazine of carefully-curated interior and design inspiration. It is a treasure trove of bright fabrics, unusual decor, and interviews with creatives and Renaissance women. I’ve always particularly enjoyed Priya’s blog (and now magazine) because she often highlights Indian designers, and while Indian design tends to be vibrant and unique, bursting with color and bold patterns, it can often be overlooked in mainstream design publications and discussions.

I haven’t been to India (yet), but I’ve been exposed to a little of the culture through friends growing up and at college, and I have to say, one of the things I’ve always loved most is the color that the culture is saturated in, so much more than America, from the clothing to the food to the interior decorating.

The Huge Cost of India’s Discrimination Against Women, via The Atlantic

“Imagine a country where the most powerful political figure, two billionaires , three of the most dominant regional politicians, several prominent CEOs, and half of local government representatives are women. Now imagine that, in that same country, one-third of adult women are illiterate, spousal rape is not illegal, and sex-selective abortion and female infanticide are still widely practiced.”
