PADMA MILAD Issue 3: Reconstructing Grandma's House
DIGITAL EDITION

The third issue of PADMA MILAD! This issue examines nostalgic interior design sparked from our need for design, life sim games, and my search for “ricefield core” as I try to re-create my south asian grandmother’s house in both real and virtual space.

PADMA MILAD is a new zine series that aims to explore a variety of topics from personal essays to cultural critiques. Each zine is printed at home, hand bound and includes a A6 sticker sheet. The title "Padma Milad" means "Lotus Festival"; each zine is a small, limited time celebration of something that’s joyful or melancholy, like a flower that only blossoms for a short time.
