03 SCOUTSTONHILL RAILWAY STATION KEYWORDS -Playful - Memorable - Enthusiastic - Noticeable Nutritional Value: At present, by analyzing the food habits of the people in Scotland, it can be understood that the food is high in calorie and includes less fruits and vegetables. Considering these factors, Egg is a food which can be included in the meal.
Location: Scotstounhill, Glasgow, Scotland
The walls are cluttered with advertisements and the space does not feel inviting
SITE ANALYSIS The main door would be difficult to be accessed by people with disability
The area has a massive ticket counter which takes up the majority of the space of the station.

“This is a path which allowed my to see joy and happiness in everything around and has also allowed my to trigger my curiosity. Each art piece is a testment to my commitment to improve, irrespective of the journey ”
Artwork Exhibited at The Royal College of Arts Superimposing two worlds in the fifth dimension It depicts the interdependency of man and nature. Some who dive in the depth of design believe the constructed elements to have life .It's the hand in hand relation of the two worlds It's not in any human sense. It's way beyond something which can be proved and hence 5th dimension) Stippling work
Painting submitted for The Hari Art Prize Netting of Knowledge (My Professor) Description: Like a Scaffolding Netting, he carefully has led a lot of students to develop in the field of Architecture and Design, in a similar way like a lot of construction works take place behind green netting. The colour 'green' also represents calmness and growth, just like how he molds us like clay, being the calmest person ever.
