Caught in Clerkenwell
✨ Subscribe to Show Notes for more from Space by Stansons at https://www.stansons.co.uk/space ✨In this special edition of Space by Stansons, Guy heads into the heart of Design Week to explore the emotional side of creativity through a live interactive installation built around six designer personality types. From The Overthinker and The Distracted to The Night Owl and the elusive Zen, designers share honest reflections on how they work, what blocks them creatively, and the routines they rely on to stay inspired. Across the conversations, recurring themes emerge around distraction, collaboration, overthinking, and the importance of stepping away to reset. Designers discuss everything from needing background noise to focus, to taking walks, leaning on teammates, and finding inspiration through materials, colour, sustainability, and human connection. The episode also captures the spirit of Design Week itself — a week built around discovery, creativity, reconnecting with the industry, and experiencing new ideas together. From acoustic sustainable products and bold colour trends to “funky non glue-down flooring,” this is a snapshot of what today’s creative community is really thinking about. A fast-paced, people-led special exploring the realities behind creative work — and the shared experiences that bring designers together.
