The Keys to Organic Designs

In the world of design we all tend to have our processes and approaches that rule how we craft our work. This is essential for most of us in the field to have in place. Our own systems that we have spent years honing and developing down to less of an art, and more of a routine. We do this so that we have an order by which we can methodically craft our designs without letting any little things slip through those proverbial cracks. Our processes tend to be a series of steps that help us cover all of our bases. But this can also prove to have a negative impact on our work.

The main element to working organically when designing is the flow. Having the design come together in this fashion allows for this feel to transfer over into the piece itself. So we need to find this flow and tap into it for the benefit of our design. We need to go with it and not force it, or we risk compromising the free and completely connected organic structure that will make the design stand out and communicate more freely with the viewer. The more this flow is nurtured, the better it will serve the design. And there are a few ways that we can help foster this flow throughout the design process.
