Since I travel a lot, I’m always taking my heavy laptop with me wherever I go: weekend trips, meetings away… and, admittedly, even on vacations. I use programs like Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator every single day — for tasks as simple as formatting photos for blog posts to things as complex and creating renderings for new collections. Schlepping my computer around had become a habit. That is until I was introduced to the Surface Pro 4.
I was approached by Microsoft to test out the Surface Pro 4 and see how I could fit it into my creative life, and I was totally amazed. It operates all of the Adobe apps and is everything my laptop is but in the portability of a super-lightweight tablet. Over the past weeks of using the Surface Pro 4 everyday, I’ve noticed that I am even more creative — popping it out to sketch out an idea from bed when I can’t sleep at night, or banging out blogpost layouts while I’m riding across town in an Uber. It’s very handy.
Check out this first video where Austin came to the Jungalow HQ and got a glimpse into my patternful world. Then, watch this second video on my discoveries about the devise, and to hear about how technology is helping my designs to reach more people than I could have ever imagined.
Ever since I got my hands on the Surface Pro 4, I’ve been using the device to draw, paint, make patterns and renderings for new collections. (I even have a whole set of ‘pens’ that allow me to change the look, feel and line-weight of my drawings.) Check out our new Pinterest board to see how the device is helping my creative life (and all the patterns I’m making on the Surface Pro 4)! And if you’re thinking about a new tablet or laptop computer for yourself or to give as a gift this year, the Surface Pro 4 is pretty mind-blowing!

Hi,
I love the vibrancy of that pattern. I am thinking about buying the surface pro 4 and was wondering about the specifications you used. Do you know if the it was the 128 GB/Intel Core i5 – 8 GB RAM, 256 GB/Intel Core i7 – 8 GB RAM or the 256 GB/Intel Core i7 – 16 GB RAM? I am in the process of designing patterns for my own fabric with a limited budget. Thank you so much for your help and for taking time out of your busy schedule to respond.

Its versatility and portability allow me to work on my projects no matter where I am, whether it’s sketching ideas on the go or finalizing designs at my desk. Keeping up with new innovations in technology is essential for anyone who wants to stay ahead of the curve, and I often visit websites like https://www.discoverybit.com/9423/top-100-mind-blowing-new-innovations-since-the-21st-century/ to stay informed about the latest advancements that can shape our future. From new innovations in healthcare to breakthroughs in renewable energy, there is always something exciting happening in the world of technology.
