GOING THE PASTEL WAY

 

GOING THE PASTEL WAY




 To style PASTEL with a modern twist. In fact, the use of pastels in interior design has shifted through many phases. At times, pastels are mainly the stuff of kids’ rooms. For awhile, they were used mostly in shabby chic interiors, coating distressed furniture in candy-colored hues. But something really interesting has happened in recent years: PATELS HAVE GONE MORDERN. It’s been fun to see them evolve with today’s current geo trend, and they’re increasingly combined in unusual vignettes, often with Scandinavian style. Let's have a look at some beautiful designs gone pastel!!!

It was a major part of the MINOAN CIVILISATION The Palace had three water management systems -water storage, water harvesting, drainage and sewage system. Long-distance systems for transporting water to the urban areas had been developed since prehistoric times due to the mountainous terrain of Crete city. Conduits carried water from mountain springs to Palaces and cities ,utilizing a combination of open channels and closed pipes in Knossos .
