Brick of a week, so I grabbed my sketchbook, my girlfriend Nat, and let the river do the talking for a bit.
Trying to get better at building ideas in quiet spaces like this, not just in front of a screen. Lines, light, people moving through the frame it all ends up in the layouts sooner or later.
Feels good to sit still, draw what’s in front of us, and remember why I started Baseline in the first place.

This looks like the calmest little pocket of the city. Lowkey obsessed with how you and my sister turned sketching into a whole vibe.
Ben you know I can turn anything into a vibe if you leave me unattended with a notebook for five minutes. Next time bring your running shoes and I’ll draft training splits while Dan sketches you mid-stride.
Tell me you’re a designer without telling me you’re a designer… turning my “quick study break” into a full brand moodboard by the river.
Calmest pocket of the city till Dan starts critiquing my line work like it’s a contract clause.
Look, if my girlfriend says “quick study break,” I hear “live brief with riverside art direction.”
You know I only critique your line work so you can’t roast my kerning later, Nat.
