Inspired by the golden era of Hindi cinema and traditional South Asian folk theatre, "NAUTANKI" (नौटंकी) is a vibrant homage to high drama, theatrical flair, and the iconic screen queens who defined classic cinematic elegance. The artwork blends a 1970s retro print aesthetic with a bold 4:3 composition featuring a hot-pink canvas of radiating sunburst rays, psychedelic swirling borders, and a balanced 2x2 grid of ornate golden picture frames anchored by classic Devanagari typography.

The images were generated with AI, but the art direction, visual decisions, composition, styling, and overall creative direction came from me as the human behind the work.
Now comes the real taste test.
Which one has the stronger visual language? Which one feels more intentional, more refined, and more memorable?

New hotel branding done : Alma del Mar 🌊☀️
A 12-room Mediterranean boutique hotel identity built around slower hospitality, personal details and a visual direction I called Kokkuri Retro — warm, rich and nostalgic, but never too loud.
From editorial pieces and guest amenities to room details and spatial touchpoints, I wanted every element to feel like part of the same world.
Where time softens.
