Preface & Intro Blog

In the Preface & Intro of Launching the Imagination by Mary Stewart, she talks about "how artists and designers explore a wide range of solutions to every problem then choose the most promising option for further development. (XIX) This gives the sense of idea that artists and designers are like mechanics, but instead of cars, it is with anything that they see as a "problem". I never really taught about artists as someone who finds solutions to problems but since in my opinion, all designers are artists then yeah it makes sense. Designers uses art to create solutions to the problems at hand. They create a rough sketch and can immediately see whether the idea has potential or not.
