A look into Nathan's notebook is like pulling the curtain back... a glimpse into the kaleidoscope of creative thinking that goes on in his head. His sketchbooks are where the images and ideas that take shape in his head begin to materialize. Whether it's brainstorming design concepts, journaling experiences, visual note-taking, or doodling out other's ideas, Nathan's process typically starts here as it tumbles from his consciousness towards digital materialization.
