We first met when I previously worked in a corporate company as part of their marketing team. Yna Trajano was in the business development side then. She resigned first and after a few months, I resigned too. 

Our passion and our realization that the corporate life was not for us was all too relatable. We were entrepreneurs at heart. We both had a lot of things in common and we knew it instantly. 

She is now currently studying fashion design in the Fashion Institute of the Philippines and I got to watch her work a little bit and see her workspace and abode. It was filled with vintage pieces from cameras to books and perfume bottles. It was completely a space of her own.

Check out what we did in her space below:



That Tchaikovsky is GOLD.



Photographs of friends and postcards from the past.

We're not very good at flat lays but we tried our best.

Just like Yna, I also create and cut patterns on the floor. It just makes things easier.







Multitasking is a skill that's needed to be mastered especially if you're an entrepreneur like us.



We both love coffee. So she made me a cup and we chatted over coffee for a few minutes.


We like to read books. She likes to multi-"read" books but unlike her, sadly I can only do one book at a time.





Her family loves art + music. Her mom bought her that keyboard because she said she stopped playing.

The view from her window was insanely beautiful. Perfect to match with a cup of coffee.



Just like us, FILM IS LIFE.

She's got so many film cameras than I had imagined!







It was great to see Yna's space. It gave me new insight into how she worked and how she conceptualizes new stuff for her brand, @ohwellstuffhappens. If you happen to be interested in a more youthful brand, take a look at Yna's brand and you might see something you like.
