A Note from Tinker Tin
This month, our founder and resident free spirit, Jaime, traded her to-do list for the trail and headed into Yosemite on horseback. No service, no emails, just time outside in one of the places that makes her feel most alive.
It felt like a good reminder that creativity doesn’t always come from working longer or pushing harder. Sometimes the best ideas show up when we stop looking for them. When we get outside, take the long way home or give ourselves enough space to notice what’s around us.
So, in the spirit of feeling free, consider this your reminder to go roaming. Check out for a few hours or a few days and make time for whatever makes you feel most like yourself. Sometimes stepping away is exactly what we need to come back inspired.
WHAT'S NEW
We had a blast designing this bar for Red Bull x Live Nation. Take a look at our other Red Bull fixtures, as well as a deep dive into our design process by clicking the link below.
A Dose of Inspiration
What we’re loving right now: This month’s mood board is all about the feeling of getting away. Horses, mountain lakes, weathered cabins, open landscapes, and beautifully worn spaces remind us that inspiration often shows up when we wander a little, embrace the imperfect, and spend more time outside.
**Warmth in the worn / free spirit / grounded in nature / inspiration found along the way**
