What Frank Chimero actually said

  1. Frank Chimero Designer and writer in New York
    The size of what we’re making is unknown until we know what we’re putting there. So, it’s better to come up with an arrangement of elements and assign them to a size, rather than the other way around. We need to start drawing, then put the box around it.
