CONCEPT
GOLDEN RATIO Keep a ratio of 2:3 in mind when arranging a space. Visually divide up the space into two sections – a larger one that takes up two thirds of the space and houses the furniture that defines the main use for the room and the final third, which accounts for a secondary function like a separate seating area or storage.

GRAPHIC DESIGN MOVIE BOOK
Taare Zameen Par is an award-winning Bollywood movie which was released in 2007. It is a story about a relationship between an 8-year-old dyslexic boy and his school teacher. The child would rather paint and day dream than study. His lack of interest in school forces his parents to send him to a boarding school for education. There, he meets a teacher who discover that the student is having trouble with his studies and is unable to cope up with the other students because he is dyslexic. Having known that, he decides to tutor him personally and help him perform well with his class. he also encourages him to sharpen his painting skills. The movie captures the pain, helplessness and struggles of the child, as he learns to live away from his mother and the rest of his family.
