Want better ideas? Get better inspiration.

Great ideas are rarely ever 100% truly original. All ideas are an evolution of something existing from before. Everything is a remix. And to craft a quality remix, you need good material. In other words, tasteful inspiration. If you want to generate great ideas and create exceptional design, you must constantly gather and curate your inspiration.
