Faint Idea
Explore the idea
For the thought before the brief. Somewhere for an idea to begin.
The word IDEA, drawn in faint, scattered dust. Exploring it gathers the grains into the word.
The problem
People with ideas rarely have the means to explore them, so most ideas stay faint.
What it would do
A small place to start: say the idea badly, answer the questions that make it specific, and leave with a first experiment small enough to try.
Who it is for
Anyone with an idea and no means yet to explore it.
What it would look like
A concept interface, drawn to show what the product would do.
- What is it, badly?A map of the quiet places in a city
- Who is it for?People who need twenty minutes of calm
- What would make it real by Friday?Twelve places, one walk, one page
Write the brief
How it would work

- Leave with a first experiment small enough to try.
