And, design always be my passion.

Joshua Alpha Buana:
LOST ON THE RIGHT TRACK

Meet Joshua Alpha Buana, an architecture graduate who has made a name for himself in graphic design that’s known in Surabaya and beyond. Through his graphic design consulting bureau Architec Graphic Boutique, Joshua has won various prestigious design awards and handled large projects across the archipelago – mostly due to his hard work, as well as a depth of understanding about the connections between design and art.

Arc/hitec Graphic was established in October 1997. I set up my office at home. The company started small, without a designer staff for over 11 years. I did all of the work, from copywriting, making illustrations to pre-press supervision by myself with the help of my printing and repro house partners. Since then, Architec has maintained a small-size graphic house character by only hiring graphic designers and sometimes doing some outsourcing for the photography, copywriting and illustration works. So far we have proudly produced over 8,500 design.

Many Sadhus beg in the Pashupatinath temple in Kathmandu, but only for enough money for the bare necessities, such as food and clothing. Some say they are glorified beggars. Sadhus are especially common at this temple in Nepal, which is rated as one of the most important Shaiva pilgrimage sites. These holy men live solitary lives and use intoxicants as a path to spiritual insight.
They do not have any material nor sexual attachments. Many live in basic dwellings such as in caves, forests or Hindu temples. Some Sadhus claim to live with ghosts in cemeteries. Sadhus live on the support of the people they encounter. Though the purists say otherwise in my experience they do accept donations for food or clothing.
