I Never Did Calligraphy... But Handwriting Is

If I Was Influenced By Anything, It Was Architecture: Structure Having To Do With Logic. If You Don't Do It Right, The Whole Thing Is Going To Cave In. In A Certain Sense, You Can Carry That To Graphic Design. Fortunately, However, Nobody Is Going To Die If You Do It Wrong.

Design Is Everything. Everything!

So That Is The Design Process Or The Creative Process. Start With A Problem, Forget The Problem, The Problem Reveals Itself Or The Solution Reveals Itself And Then You Reevaulate It. This Is What You Are Doing All The Time.

Design Is A Way Of Life, A Point Of View. It Involves The Whole Complex Of Visual Communications: Talent, Creative Ability, Manual Skill, And Technical Knowledge. Aesthetics And Economics, Technology And Psychology Are Intrinsically Related To The Process.

I Never Did Calligraphy... But Handwriting Is An Entirely Different Kind Of Thing. It's Part Of The Syndrome Of Modernism... It's Part Of That Asceticism.
