On this particular occasion, John was part of a gathering of architects and designers for a 'Drink + Sketch,' covered in Maine Home Design magazine. Local architects from the Portland area were invited to gather at Novare Res Bier Café in Portland for a drink and to celebrate the hand-drawn in an increasingly digital world.

The evolution of the workplace, particularly with the rise of remote work, has brought about a renewed focus on the aesthetics of our work environments, extending beyond the physical office to include the digital realm. Having a beautiful office is no longer just about creating a pleasing physical space for productivity and creativity; it's equally important to consider the visual backdrop that represents us in virtual meetings. This dual focus ensures that our professionalism and attention to detail are evident, not just in our work, but also in the environments we choose to display during video calls.
