Field Notes on Design
Oct 1, 2025
Design is not a sequence of steps but a conversation — between thought, material, and the limits of one’s tools. The process becomes meaningful when it reveals the structure beneath intuition: why a line feels right, why an interaction feels natural, why emptiness can sometimes say more than detail.
Perception is not just about seeing but noticing — the space between objects, the rhythm in alignment, the texture of light. Simplicity emerges when intention aligns with clarity. It’s not about subtraction, but precision. Every element must justify its existence.
Design, then, becomes a study in awareness — a discipline of constant editing. You stop designing things, and start designing relationships.
