Working from home with very few overheads often makes me scratch my head at the logic of running a traditional design agency model.
I have what I need. A laptop and design packages, paper, sketchpads, pencils and stuff, an internet connection, a printer/scanner, phone, two dogs and a tortoise.
I've never even felt the need for a business card or stationary which sounds like being a vegetarian butcher because most of my stuff is done online.
When I worked in house I used to wonder why I was sat at a desk and spending the time, money and stress to get there and back. It just seemed like madness.
Recently I've seen a couple of my clients downsizing.
Not due to financial difficulties but out of preference. Outsourcing work to freelancers with the skill set they need when they need it.
I was reading an interesting article on CreativeBoom yesterday about a successful agency that has done the same.
Is this the future?
