Why manage your workspace?


   Work space sets the environment for your thoughts with that being said, if your space is not managed, your thoughts would not be managed either causing untidy, sloppy work. Having a managed work space allows for the designer/ artist to be able to access equipment quickly and accomplish great work in a timely manner. A managed work space also creates motivation and allows thoughts to flow freely. From personal experience I know that I cannot function properly in an environment which is not conducive for working. If my room is untidy OR if I cannot access everything I need in one place I relocate to somewhere where I feel more comfortable and everything I need is arranged orderly around me for easy access. A managed work space also says a lot about your character to potential clients. People who do not know you look at how you dress, your personality and also your work space especially in graphics and designing says a lot about you. I don't think anyone who wants a design for their wedding dress would take to kindly to a designer whose work space is drenched with sloppy burgers and french fries surrounding the materials they want to use. As I stated, managing work space does not only cater to easy accessibility to equipment it also helps with having well organised and clear ideas and also it makes clients feel more comfortable.
