But here’s the issue: even if we’re good at estimating costs (as all the information is on our side), we’re typically bad at estimating the other 50% of the equation — revenues.

As fall proceeds apace, ripping off calendar pages, hell bent on winter, I find quiet reverie in the rich memory of Tuscan days, when the cold was not in sight. It was a time of camaraderie, attended by the rich hues of Tuscany, beckoning our cameras, and a time to thoroughly enjoy the magic of the Italian table. In the ancient Villa Pozzola , we would literally awake to the smells of a gorgeous breakfast, wafting down the rough hewn halls of this historic structure.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.
