Window views, window drafts, black out panels

I have a very difficult conundrum that I am currently dealing with.

I suppose it is nothing very interesting or original to hear about. I am making the same complaint that so many creatives have voiced in the past. I have trouble with my creative blocks at times, and it is very challenging for me to kick-start my inspiration again. If you have ever worked in a creative job, you probably know what I’m talking about. I’m finding that it is very difficult to establish the right conditions for my creative brain to work. I need the right lighting, the right heating, and the right air quality for anything to take place. This is why I have been trying to work in front of a large, beautiful window where I get lots of natural light. The problem is, I also get lots of natural temperature fluctuation. Because I am sitting right in front of a window, I am regularly being blasted with ice cold drafts. I thought I could circumvent the cold air seepage by installing some window insulation panels to keep more of the frigid air outdoors. Unfortunately, this has not solved the ice cold draft problem. I was getting so distracted by the chilly air sitting in front of this window that I eventually decided to install an insulating window treatment to block some of the cold. The black out curtain panel made a huge difference in the air temperature discrepancy and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Now, I’m finally warm enough to work… but I have no natural light or view out the window. I give up.
