Creative Chaos

Studio founder Karin Fong on harnessing her Imaginary Forces

Our studio Imaginary Forces is located on the west side of LA. We’ve been in this space for six years now, and I think my favourite thing about it is all the natural light. It’s a warehouse-style space with big open windows, so we get a nice breeze. And we have our own parking lot – rarer than you’d think in LA.

My work space is best described as the cluttered chaos of creativity. You can’t trust studios that are too neat! I’m old fashioned – I still like to cut out paper frames and Post-its when laying out storyboards. There’s usually not a spare surface – even the walls have drawn frames taped up on them. I’m a big believer in the power of mixing analogue and digital, and my area reflects that.
