"Describing what you'll make is not the same as understanding what's wrong."

Do this now

Write one sentence: "This project addresses [problem] for [audience]." If you can't finish it clearly, you're not ready to design yet. A real problem has a gap — something between where things are now and where they need to be.

Unpack

The problem and the solution are not the same thing. Starting with a solution is starting blind. The narrower and more specific your problem, the more useful your design decisions become. Vague language produces vague work — every word in your problem statement should earn its place.

Draw it.

Fast and messy is better than perfect.
