The whole process of designing requires some commitment to the process. Its difficult to get your ideas flowing if you are stuck in a design rut.
Here’s some basic ideas that I’ve have used to help get the ideas flowing in various situations over the years.
Open the design process
- a nice long lunch-simple but it works
- magazine store-browse for some ideas
- long bike ride or walk
All the above are quite simple ideas that we sometimes forget to use. The graphic design process really should not be painful.
The pressure cooker of deadlines really can suck the energy out of you. You need to refocus on the project and not allow all the external forces get in the way. I just hope its a nice sunny day when you start looking for information that will get your design juices flowing.
