My design process begins with my immersion in culture and media. I read books and magazines, see movies, look at fashion on the street, check out design blogs and go to museums and art galleries. This is how I develop a visual vocabulary.
It is fascinating to see what has come before and what is going on now. This week, I am currently reading One! Hundred! Demons! by Lynda Barry, went to the Francis Bacon show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, saw PJ Harvey at the Beacon Theater, pored over the ephemera art section at the Strand Bookstore and checked out some gallery shows in Chelsea. I look for inspiration (and take my point and shoot camera) everywhere.
