How I find Architectural Ideas
Eight strategies I use to find architectural ideas and confront - the intimidating - blank page.
Topics covered:
Bisociation
Trusting the design process
Embracing constraints
Inventing deadlines
Doing the opposite (anti-project)
Subtracting to solve
Stealing (like an artist)
These are just a few of the design tricks I use to help grease the creative wheels and instill the confidence I need to keep moving forward. What's great is these techniques work for a whole host of disciplines and creative fields, they're not exclusive to architecture.
