I always knew it, today I just got it confirmed: For the gigantic fact that we've been trained day and night 'architectually' for 3 years (emphasising 'day and night'), we are still visual idiots!
I am not ashamed of admitting that though. There are different levels of visual sensibility. Presumably, architecture is dealing with 3D, which is spatially superior than 2D (or Graphic Design). However, when it comes 'down' to 2D, the fact is NOT that I can handle it skillfully, but rather, i had the feeling of having wasted all the years learning nothing in terms of the ability to produce a visually effective graphic design.
I remember the experience of struggling in the process of visual design: I foresee the possibility of myself getting it done (had a glimpse of light), but then got lost halfway, and ended up producing some mundane version of cliche. Question: Is it time for me to get over this?
Weakness(lacking...): Technical skills, aesthetics, design sensibility...
