Unstructured

I don't know when or how I gravitated towards unstructured things in my life. As far as I remember, I was always attracted by clothes that were not symmetrical, haircuts that sported sharp edges, furniture which was of an odd shape (especially furniture made of roots of trees etc), pen stands which impersonated animals and human forms, jewellery made of big pieces and of course danglers..

As I grew older and had more exposure to this fascinating world, my liking for unstructuredness expanded to note-books, cutlery, mugs (I specially love the ones which look like crumpled cups),formal clothes (yes, you can be unstructured and formal in clothes!),vases, butter-knives, hooks, peelers, brushes,chairs, tables, cushions.. the list is endless...it's amazing how designers come up with these seemingly curious shapes and give them life.

I think life will be extremely boring with only symmetrical, angular or circular things .It's this dash of unstructured things, which add lots of spices to our life.
