Ever started with an ‘Untitled-01’ and scared beyond wit wondering if your design project will be a fiasco?
It’s often unclear what the end result should look like or even worse, how you should go about an idea that needs to be implemented. You might just be on another fishing expedition for all you know.
Do not worry, it happens to the best of us *wink wink*. You can try one or all of the below tips to help give you some clarity on that new design project you’re stuck with.
God is in the details:
The answer lies in the little details that create a vague picture in your mind. Paying attention to the smaller details while unravelling an idea will help you understand the bigger picture.
Put It down on paper/canvas:
Write it down, or sketch it. Whichever gives you a more comprehensive idea. Once, you’ve made a list or rough sketches, you’ll soon be able to join the dots. If not, you can always combine 2 or 3 ideas to come up with something entirely new.
Take an opinion or two from a friend
Collaborated ideas are not only great but also a lot of fun. I can completely vouch for that because right now, as I’m writing this, I am also working on a logo design project with a friend of mine and we’ve come up with some amazing stuff which might not have taken from had we designed them alone! But don’t ask a random Joe, try and talk to people who understand the objective of your project.
The intent of writing this piece roots from the illustration you see above. It was more of a ‘let’s see what happens if I play around with elements’. And voila! Another creation. Pretty neat huh?
All you need to do grab a cup of coffee and get past those nosy jitters. You’ll have a masterpiece before you take the last sip!
