How Intuitive Are You? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How intuitive do you think you are? They say we are all intuitive until we are taught how to be in the world. Our personalities grow, our senses dull. We become conditioned. When you’ve deconditioned enough to trust what your intuition might tell you, trust in yourself grows. Let us know where you think you fall on the scale.Intuition is a type of knowing. It’s not just feeling something, or having a feeling and trusting it. That is a highly doubtful method for leaning into any non-cognitive way
Taking A Wider View (opens the original)

ManifestoLook upThe impetus for this essay is a blog post I read by someone on LFL who is an architect. She wrote in response to the 2024 election and said that we, as designers, have a duty.
