The best way you learn how to do something is just to do it, and in design, as a designer it is very common to get lost in the inspiration/consumption phase

i am asking because... you hear both opinions being gentrified from different sides
plan slow vs just do it

I think it's subjective
If you know your technically versed enough to do the job last minute after having something in mind
You'd usually flesh out your thoughts

But being itterative has the upperhand in immersing yourself
And learning as you go type beat


At least this is how I see drawing

If it is something you’ve mastered then definitely plan slow and then do it well in one go is more efficient (for me at least)

But if it’s something new you can’t plan it to perfection no matter how hard you try, it’s better to just jump into it and learn the hard way😂

Font pairing is a headache. save this

O-1 is already better than 93 percent of people on codeforces

in a couple years, software development will become irrelevant and people will move higher up in ranks to "managers", the same way react developers now use libraries and are a step higher than previous generation developers

Brand Strategy vs. Brand Identity: Understanding the Difference

Many people mistakenly believe that Brand Identity is the same as Brand Strategy. In reality, brand identity refers to the visual aspects of a brand—like logos, colors, and design—but Brand Strategy encompasses the entire blueprint that shapes how a brand communicates and behaves in the market.

above image highlights the two key pillars of Brand Strategy: Strategic Direction and Strategic Expression.

Brand Substance: This is the foundation of your brand. It answers key questions like "what is the brand’s purpose? What vision and mission drive it? What are its core values?"
Positioning: where the brand stands in relation to its audience and competitors. It’s about understanding the audience, assessing the competition, and finding the unique difference that sets your brand apart.
Character: The brand’s personality and voice. How should the brand "sound" when it speaks to its audience? What tone of voice best reflects the brand’s core identity and values?
Verbal Expression: This includes the brand’s messaging frameworks and storytelling. It’s how the brand communicates its promises, through taglines, stories, and consistent messaging across touchpoints.
Visual Expression: The brand’s outward identity. This covers everything from the logo and color palette to visual elements that ensure a consistent, recognizable presence across platforms.
By integrating both strategic direction and expression, a brand can create a seamless and impactful presence. Brand strategy defines who you are, and brand identity is how you express that strategy visually.
