My Sketchbook, Site Diagrams + Contractor Interviews
The latest round of prototypes have arrived for the sketchbook I’m designing + manufacturing. In this 'day in the life' you’ll get the first look at it. I’ll also walk you through a site analysis as I build it in Keynote which I've been using for most of my presentation work lately. I love its simple, minimalist toolset. On my daily hike I climb Pemetic mountain in Acadia national park and following that you’ll see excerpts from two contractor interviews as I search for the right builder to help construct the OUTPOST project. My schedule prioritizes making things in the morning and managing things in the afternoon and this ensures the work that’s most important to me is completed first.
