Good morning and welcome to another edition of Workspaces!
This newsletter celebrated its 4th birthday yesterday! 4 years and 400+ setups featured. Crazy how time flies!
As I reflect on how far this project has come since it's start, I'd love to know what your favorite edition has been so far.
Reply and let me know! Can be a link or just the name of the guest.

How do you spark creativity?

By looking around and noticing things that annoy me or don't work well, whether it's something that looks bad or functions poorly. Each frustrating thing I see becomes motivation for me to come up with creative new solutions to fix or improve it. The more irritating things catch my attention, the more possibilities for creative problem-solving open up. I’m also inspired by what Dieter Rams and Paul Rand have accomplished with their work.
