Sketchbook • Why a sketchbook? • capture many initial ideas – both good and bad • explore & refine ideas both in the large and in the small • develop variations, alternatives, details • keep a record of your ideas • reflect on changing thought processes over time • communicate ideas to others by showing • choose ones worth developing • capture good ideas you see elsewhere • collect photos, tape them into your book
