I read this, and had to continue Frank Chimero's post about design...
"Take things away until you cry. Accept most things, and reject most of your initial ideas. Print it out, chop it up, put it back together. When you’re aimlessly pushing things around on a computer screen, print it out and push it around in real space. Change contexts when you’re stuck. Draw wrong-handed and upside down and backwards. Find a good seat outside.
Design is just a language, it’s not a message. If you say “retro” too much you will get hives and maybe die."

(Note: I haven't been keeping you posted on how the project has been developing...it simply happens all so fast. But I am at that point where I will be rejecting my initial ideas and chopping things up-crying- and putting it together again)
