Your instincts steer you in the right direction in relationships. Your instincts are connected closely with your needs - which mean that you don’t get halfway through the day and realise you haven’t eaten or have barely drunk any water," wrote Therapist Sian Crossley.

The terms ‘contemporary’ and ‘modern’ are often used interchangeably however, in the world of home decor and furniture design, they are not the same. In an interview with Zarafshan Shiraz of HT Lifestyle, Varun Poddar, Founder of VOX India, explained, “Modernism’ in design refers to the movement that began at the start of the 20th century.
