These days working on the computer takes about 90% of our time. I wanted designers to step away from the computer once in a while and do something more analog than digital. One of the activities we do is our Craft Social but I feel it’s not quite enough…

So I’ve taken advantage of a couple lunch hours to motivate and inspire designers by doing some sketching away from their desks. I share with them lessons I’ve picked up from blogs and other inspirational designers.

I feel it’s good to get out once in a while too, to look for inspiration or other activities outdoors. We are blessed with our office location that we get a chance to enjoy ‘nature’ in this urban jungle.

I’m quite excited at these deliberate changes in routine, moving away from the screens once in a while during work hours.
