Inside The Web Design Studio of Brandon Houston

This week marks the first week of living in a new house.  While the whole moving process is very tiring and I don’t recommend doing it often, my girlfriend and I are very happy to be in the new place.  It’s a nice four bedroom house on the outskirts of town.  Behind the house is a nice outstretch of farmland.  I now have a toolshed in the back for my woodworking projects (which I always talk about but very rarely get to) and a nice little games room that I’ve put my foosball table in.  All around it’s a nice little place.  We’re just renting for now but I can definitely see myself buying the place from the current owner in a year.  There are a lot of things I can see doing with the place.

My new office is in the front of the house and gives me a nice view onto the road.  I have a lot more room to set up shop now and it’s a lot more comfortable and relaxing.  This should give way to letting me be more productive.  I still have quite a few boxes to unpack and a lot of organizing but all in due time.

With that being said I have to get back to focus on my current projects.  I have about three on the go right now and 2 more in the pipeline, along with my usual client website maintenance.  Now that I have more room I will really be able to organize my schedule and not feel so constricted.  I’ve made a promise to myself to get outside more this summer as well.  Hopefully it will keep my creativeness fresh.  That previous project I mentioned regarding the wowing of socks.  Consider the socks wowed.  They agreed to the proposal and loved the first design concept.  I’m also looking forward to getting started on the new Cancer Awareness project.  We’re just waiting government funding approval.  I think it’s going to turn out great and I’m really looking forward to working with my friend Scott on it (www.fightingwithknives.com).

Well, time to move on.  I need to unpack a few more boxes.  I can finally see the nice hardwood floor in my office.
