Stop Designing So Fast Graphic Designers. The Design Problem is Hiding Beneath the Surface
Description
Graphic designers are trained to solve the problem sitting right in front of them. New website? Design it. New logo? Make it. New campaign? Get to work.
But what if the problem you were handed isn’t the problem at all?
Sometimes you have to stop designing long enough to figure out what actually needs to be fixed.
In this episode of The Angry Designer Podcast, we explore the surprising connection between a cottage renovation, graphic design, creative problem solving, and design strategy, and why the best designers don’t just make better solutions. They know where to look for the real problem.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why great graphic designers look beyond the problem a client hands them
- How curiosity and strategic thinking uncover better design solutions
- The 3 questions designers should ask before they start designing
Anyone can make the obvious solution look better.
Great designers dig deeper.
