bindu LibraryÂ
Â
Welcome to my "Happy Place". The magical world of inspiration and endless learning for the sake of wonder and in my case concept development.
Ever since I was a child, I loved to wander in libraries and book shops. To feed my curiosity and hunger for inspiration.
This list is a first selection of books that will grow. These are also books that I bring to the bindu creative workshops and retreats.Â
