THE PARK- PASHA , CHENNAI AND ROXY, KOLKATA


The Park

Pasha, The Park, Chennai (menu/restaurant copy)
design and concept by tsk design, Bangalore

Home to Chettinad an intrepid traveler
Returns with fables of Persia whence
The sensual delights he saw there
He fashions to a palace of decadence

And for his Kismet, the beautiful concubine
Makes a private chamber like the finest of jewels
Crazed with heady sweet-scented wine
As the royal Pasha he rules!


ROXY (Name and concept note for the new bar at the Park, Kolkata)
design and concept by tsk design, Bangalore

C'mon babe
Why don't we paint the town?
And all that jazz ..
I'm gonna rouge my knees
And roll my stockings down
And all that jazz…

Roxy croons these words while dancing in the dazzling arc lights of the musical Chicago. Epitomising the glamorous, swinging era of the 20’s and 30’s, where cinema was the new opiate of the masses, where the dark mafia-run underbelly of the city was opulently disguised by the sophistication and sensuality of Hollywood and dance halls, where having your name up in lights meant just that. Roxy is a sexy, clever woman, powerful and fur clad, making her own destiny. She is the heat of the red, the animal warmth of the fur, against the masculine, cigar-scented browns and leathers of the bar.

The story of Roxy’s life evokes the drama and the nostalgic glamour of the theatre, dance, jazz and cinema of that time. The high drama of the floating mezzanine reflects the thrill of the screen and stage. The projections lend a voyeuristic twist to the theatricality, the inaccessibility of the private club. The high seated mezzanine gods look down curiously at the frolickers among chains and leather on the lower level, who in turn, gaze up in fascinated inquiry.

Roxy is short for Roxanne, which means dawn. At the dawn, or the forefront of the musical revolution of the late 60’s and early 70’s were the glam-rock, new wave band Roxy Music. The group's name was an homage to the fact that old cinemas and dance halls were often named Roxy. The juxtaposition of nostalgic and contemporary (or futuristic) themes was a distinctive feature of the band. The bar echoes this melange completely. Combinations of aesthetic experimentation and sophisticated wit, and highly developed visual presentation are common to the bar’s design as well as to the band’s music. The infusion of styles- 50s-tinged vocals splashed with 60s rhythms and 70s electronics are a mirror of the older shell of the building cleaved with the retro furniture and the very modern, almost space-age mezzanine. Even the band's image which embraced contemporary synthetic materials like spandex, shocking colors, futurist lurex jackets easily translate to the sci-fi movies of the 70’s from which the futuristic elements in the bar are inspired.

IKAN RELOCATIONS

IKAN (brochure copy)

In 1996, two young men thought up a fledgling idea. This idea, born in a small room in New Delhi, escalated into a pioneering enterprise. An enterprise that now has a 100 employees and works out of 15 locations (including Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan), and is an undisputed leader in domestic and global relocation services. An enterprise that has facilitated over 4000 relocations and made the lives of 200 clients so much simpler.

For 10 years IKAN Relocations has provided comprehensive relocation and related solutions reinforced by the newest technology, guided by highly qualified consultants, and supported by partnerships with leading international mobility management companies.
Along the way, we have added a few notches to our belt.

We are distinguished by the fact that we have key decision makers at multiple locations, so operational quality, efficiency and accountability is paramount and inevitable. We are the leading immigration service provider in the country, and represent the best global relocation and immigration service providers. We are founder-partner of the Reloc8 Asia Pacific Group. We are among a select group of companies that provide continuous support to assignees through tenancy management programs and financial management services. And we have garnered a reputation as one of the finest Art handling companies on the subcontinent.

Within IKAN too, there has been tremendous growth and evolution. Under our umbrella we have IR Moving Concepts (In-house Packing & Moving), HHG Removals Division (India’s fastest growing Packing & Moving Company) I-Fin (Financial Management Services & Furniture Rental) and I-Realtors (Real Estate Management). And we’re not stopping there- future plans include Record Management services, Service Apartments and a Hospitality division.

The true secret of IKAN’s success lies in our trusted team of personnel who have tuned in perfectly to a winning formula- a set of values that the company thrives on to reach unparalleled heights in the business of smoothening the process of employee mobility. The more we grow, the more we depend on these ideals to inspire us, never losing sight of our commitment to personalized and customized service to clients during a period that is full of challenges.

Trust, Experience, Reliability, Empathy, Responsiveness, Focus…these are the core values that make IKAN what it is today. An enterprise that unravels the human and logistical challenges of relocation to allow the easy bridging of cross-cultural differences and the seamless, comfortable integration of expatriate families into new and unfamiliar environments.

IKAN commemorates a decade of bridging boundaries by thanking you for your constant and staunch support. We invite you to join us in our celebrations as you have in our journey.
At HINT, the lounge at Bangalore Central, on the 21st of July, 7.30pm onwards

abhijit bansod-brochure

Abhijit Bansod
A jesters muse…

Abhijit Bansod is a quirky designer who thinks not just out of the box, but out of the whole carton. In the circus of life his lateral line of thought is the jester's domain. His products are alive…they speak a strange language that everyone understands.. Layered with whimsical wit and a jack-in-the box love of surprise, the products also conjure in us pain and emotion. They escape the Pandora’s box of mere functionality to beautifully reveal stories and poems to us.

Abhijit’s products talk to you, not just about you. He believes that there is interactivity between products and their users, heightening creativity and imagination. His designs leak from his pores, evolving from his journey through life- getting inspiration disguised as lightning bolts from people, nature and everyday situations. Invoking memory. Interpreting contemporary culture in his inimitable and rather eccentric way.

Putting the human back in design.
