creative corner n o 5 Natassja Velasco I always prefer quiet spaces and minimal interactions with people when searching for ideas. I want to see how far my mind can go. Hearing others' ideas puts me in a corner, so I leave out the brainstorming part for when I'm ready. While I prefer quiet spaces, I do want it to be visually inspiring: from clean to gritty. While it's hard to find a quiet spot in Manila, there is something rewarding about its noise. The sounds of the city reflect the contrasts of its people’s lives, which can be quite insightful.
