Honestly, I was stuck on a logo for a local brewery for like two weeks. Then I dug out my old Pantone swatch book and just started picking colors with my eyes closed.

Ever read about how our brains get stuck in patterns when we try too hard? I saw a thing where a designer said forcing random choices, like your color pick, can break that. They talked about a guy who made his best album art by rolling dice for layout choices. It's like you have to trick your own mind out of its safe little box. Your eyes closed method is basically the same idea, just way more low-tech.

But isn't the whole point to break YOUR own patterns, not just follow random ones?

Rolling dice for album art... that's wild.
