Recently, we caught up with The Barn founder and Creative Director Nick Matarese regarding his company’s latest pursuits. As part of that larger conversation, we asked Matarese what he sits down to at his computer every morning.

You’re literally looking for that ‘lightbulb inspiration.’ It could be anything.

“I usually just come into the office, open those links and get my brain in the right place,” he said.
