In Legg’s research paper, The Materiality of Place, she speaks about the importance that walking has on a creative individual and how it aids as a research tool allowing us to better understand the environment and to expand our knowledge thereof. Legg being a designer that relies on the natural environment for inspiration often takes walks to forage for photographs or interesting tangible objects that she uses to create pieces of jewellery (Legg 2012:139). According to Legg, walking “is comprehension of how both urban and natural spaces can be moulded by different eventualities: the different light during the day, the weather, the memories evoked by a certain atmosphere, noise or smell, and the emotional state of mind of the individual.” (Legg 2012:59)
