What is a Visual Journal?
A visual journal is a form of expression that prioritizes visual elements over written words. Unlike traditional journals, it uses drawings, sketches, doodles, collages, and other visual techniques to document thoughts, ideas, and experiences. This approach allows for a more intuitive and creative way to capture the design process.

Design is everywhere, constantly surrounding us in both obvious and subtle ways. To truly understand design requires opening our eyes to absorb everything around us. The fundamentals of art and creating good design are akin to good speaking, articulation, and writing—they all require keen observation, thoughtful composition, and clear communication.
