“Everything You Can Imagine is Real.” - Pablo Picasso
Creativity is a powerful form of self-expression shaped by an individual's cultural influences. It's a path to self-empowerment that fosters comfort and confidence.
The creators or designers are often eager to showcase their work and make a unique statement. They could be naturally skilled or eager to acquire the skills (students), homemakers, a fashion brand promotion team, or just enthusiasts. They're always seeking relevant information to expand their knowledge, but finding, compiling, and making sense of scattered resources across multiple platforms can be time-consuming and overwhelming.
Our aim at fadsandfables.com is to curate a bouquet of fads and create a centralized platform where the most relevant information, concepts, and inspirations are organized into one place as simple short stories. The techniques and resources in these fables are easily accessible and helpful for learning and performing like an expert.
We also aim to capture the journeys of creative minds, exploring the inspirations and influences they have drawn from various arts, regional crafts, and cultural heritage. Our platform also shares expert perspectives, industry trends, business skills, and promotional strategies to prepare creators for successful careers and setups. Each fable in our collection provides a carefully curated mix of concepts, tools, techniques, and references, guiding creators' journey from novice to pro.
The Thought Behind
The Force Behind
Fads & Fables is the brainchild of Tamseel Khan. She has a beautiful blend of right and left brains and wonderfully balances her creativity with digital marketing skills. Her passion for designing started at the early age of 12, and so did her love for numbers. To satiate her first love and hone her sense of design, she joined NIFT, after graduating in Business Administration. That allowed her to follow her passion more seriously and gave her the confidence to take up designing as something more than a hobby.
Along with educating herself as a designer, Tamseel also learned about the complexities of the business world, especially marketing and analytics. Even as she worked in the corporate world, freelance design assignments kept her design skills rooted in the world of creativity.
The thrust and parry of balancing her creativity with business eventually brought her to build this platform. It is here that Tamseel wishes to share her knowledge and expertise. She would love to see others also excel in creative businesses.
