When I’ve been wrestling with a design project and can’t seem to crack it, I’ll remind myself to turn it upside down. A change of perspective helps me see how formal elements relate to one another differently. Instead of seeing what is recognizable (a word, a paragraph of text, a photograph), I see abstract shapes, space and contrast. I do puzzles this way sometimes, too, since puzzle pieces are tiny canvases of abstraction. These days the world feels upside down. I don’t know yet what I see from this new vantage point.
