Nick told us what he misses about being back in the studio and the benefits working from home has given him.
Where in the house do you work?
I’ve been working at a fairly makeshift desk in the spare bedroom since the beginning of lockdown. We haven’t been here that long, and I hadn’t realised quite how cold the house is when you’re sitting at a desk all day, not moving around much as I would in the studio – I’ve had a blanket around my legs up until a few weeks ago and have only just stopped wearing a woolly jumper!
I’m not looking forward to the weather getting colder, but will hopefully be back in the studio more regularly by then!
Paint a picture for us of the view from your window.
It’s a great view actually, and I’m lucky enough to look out onto a lovely street full of trees, so it was great to see the seasons change as the months have gone by. There’s also a church about 100 metres away and the bell chimes every 15 minutes! It’s a great reminder to dial into that next meeting! And by coincidence, since I started working from home I decided to take a photo from the window each day…
