I was reading an article the other day and I got to this line of Paul Rand:
"Design is 99 percent intuitive."
I can say that I agree with him. I would add that, not only in design, but in most of the time when we use our creativity.
Of couse that it doens't mean that you have to do things without think and analyze! But as you go designing and analyzing your work, some how, things start to show up.
Well, but first things first! Knowledge is necessary, always!! So always seek for it! Read book, magazines, go to musems...everyhting that can bring something new!! Don't see things as good or bad, learn to analyze them without a pre concept!
But, don't become a person that is just searching knowledge in theory! Experience thing. Don't be stuck just in front of a computer screen!
Live you life fully! Work, study, exercite, love, cry, listen to music, travel, dance, laugh..."intuition requires knowledge, and knowledge requires experience."
If you can, go for a walk now or a bit later(but try!!), take your music with you if you're a music lover as I am, and just "experience" the walk. How? Well, look at the detaisl aroud you, you may see amazing things that were always there!! This kind of thing is getting lost in rush of our times...
