Meghan Baker interview

What inspires you to keep making things?

"Inspiration comes in so many forms for me. For example, I tend to look at architecture and furniture design in the movies and, almost instantly, want to implement that into my own design. It's the challenge that makes me itch for more."

What one piece of advice would you give to other makers?

"Don't hesitate. Just build it. Learn. Grow. Inspire."

"Don't hesitate. Just build it..." — Meghan Baker
