Macro to Micro

One of the questions that is often asked in the interviews at Sandarbh is whether you like to work on the big picture or if you prefer to dwell on the details. Turns out, all of us fit into one category or the other. For those of us who are more detail oriented, it often becomes only about the details and we tend to miss out on the larger scheme of things. But over the past 3 months I've noticed that the best place to start is at a macro level and work your way inwards. Once the decisions have been taken in terms of the space planning and the overall design, then it becomes easier to detail out the spaces and resolve them. Turns out when you try going the other way around, mostly you end up with a mish-mash of well-detailed spaces that somehow don't come together cohesively. On the other hand the macro to micro design approach yields decidedly better results!
