asked my husband what his future luxury splurge would be if we ever struck gold. ’A $5000 espresso machine‘ he says without missing a beat, which I can only use after mandatory training 😅 I guess I’ll just promote him to live-in barista then !!!!

Shoutout to @josh_  for his website magic ✨

Miscellanea hosts my concept design and writing around trend forecasts, fashion and retail. It’s been in the works for a while and I’m so excited to see it come to life 🌀

I love arena, the wider internet, and the ability to discover imagery but there needs to be another way to find the original image source to credit owners or check for ownership!!! Sick of the messiness of google reverse image search

the list of things I need in order to get work done continues to grow

my first independent piece of writing, 'The Thing About Trend Forecasting' is now live, on my new website, Miscellanea https://www.miscellanea.studio/proof-of-concepts/the-thing-about-trend-forecasting?utm_source=postscv

My inability to be disciplined today proves that I need to work harder so I can ultimately work less 🫠

I’m trying to spruce up my LinkedIn and my graphic designer husband says he’ll endorse me but not for my illustrator skills 🔪🔪🔪

everytime I ask my mum for a recipe she lists the ingredients but can never answer me on ratios or measurements 🫠

Anybody have a rec for free project management courses? There’s plenty online but looking for that tried and tested Posts-community-approved ☑️

As a designer, I feel like we could always benefit from learning how to be a better writer. In any case, I think most people have the capability to learn how to design; that part of your brain must be trained and grown, similarly to learning how to write effectively.

I was never a chocolate/ sweets person until now… on an empty stomach with coffee, after a garlicky lunch, with a little ice cream to cool down, just a tab before bed time 🍫

Hey posts world 🌀 I’m a concept designer/ strategist with a background in trend forecasting, partnering with brands and founders launch their collections and fashion start ups — ntmu !!!

Launching a lil side project today.  

I often found myself searching for well-designed decks for inspiration and realized there was no dedicated place for it. So, I created one 🙌

Any feedback is welcome ☻

Looking for a cosmos invite if anyone has a spare 🙋🏻‍♀️🌷

I have a simple criteria for judging new “mood board” platforms: do more than half the saved images depicting women feature nudity/sultry looks? If so, it’s not for me. That’s why I choose Arena over Cosmos, Savee, etc. I want whole people & ideas, not boys’ fantasies.

take a step back to empower your team. do nothing to empower the world 🌐

anyone else out there having to start math-ing their parents care as they not-so-enthusiastically retire while navigating a creative industry? I think I've let out 10 big sighs this past hour.

mastered the working-from-home-empty-the-fridge lunch today!! My perfectly crunchy veggie sandwich ✨

Some charts for @marian’s essay printed out and strewn about in the studio

What would you make if there were no computers?

My husband and I work full time from home and have our own little ‘lunch and learns’ where we watch parts of documentaries in our lunch hour. Anybody have a favourite doc that gets them thinking ? Can be anything Michael Moore-esque to design/tech/cooking/fashion 🙏
