Lifestyle & Cosmos
Welcome to Lifestyle & Cosmos—a blog by Sustainaverse for the curious, the conscious, and the creators.
We don’t believe in staying in one lane; instead, we bring together the things that make a modern life meaningful:
-
Sustainable Style: We’re obsessed with fashion that feels good and does good. From the latest in eco-friendly fabrics to the stories behind the labels, we explore how to build a better wardrobe.
-
Living Well: Simple tips for a more intentional life. Whether it’s choosing better products or finding a slower pace, we’re all about making "conscious living" feel easy.
-
Digital Balance: In a world of endless scrolling, we talk about the joy of deep reading and how to stay sane in a digital-first world.
-
The Startup Life: We go behind the scenes of what it truly means to be an entrepreneur.
-
Space & Beyond: Space isn't just for scientists! We look at how space exploration is changing our future on Earth and what it means for how we’ll live tomorrow.
Our vibe: We believe that the way we live today—from the clothes we wear to the tech we use—shapes the world of tomorrow.

Optimism Fuels Spaceflight, But It Isn't Blind
How often do you hear stories of engineers eating peanuts in Mission Control and performing rituals that seem misaligned with the popular notion of what a rocket scientist should behave like?

The Selfie Paradox: Documenting Life vs. Living It
We reach beautiful destinations and immediately start looking for the best angle. We taste extraordinary food and photograph it before it cools. We meet friends we haven't seen in months and spend half the reunion taking group photos to commemorate the reunion itself.

What Happens in Space Systems Engineering?
What does a systems engineer even do?
It's a highly valid question. We talk about structure, aerodynamics, on-board computers, sensors, communication systems for rockets and satellites and they are rightly taught as THE necessary technical knowledge in Universities. Systems Engineers exist to bring all these together. Let me try to explain this with two terms that are bread and butter for systems engineers—Requirements and Trade-offs.

Build A Space Business, Not Just Tech
If you only like the tech aspect of space — please become an engineer. Quite often I speak with people especially from some parts of the country where they are getting highly excited looking at the space industry developments around them.

Conscious Vows
Every motif in her wedding lehenga tells a story: elephants representing both Ria's love for the animals and the Amboseli Park ecosystem where they married, on the border between Kenya and Tanzania. The location itself was chosen for its resonance—Ria's husband first came to Africa through Tanzania's Peace Corps, spending two years in a remote village before eventually making his way to Kenya and to her.
