Designers: Screenshot Your Unused Pitch Directions—They Become Your Best Inspiration Library

round · x · 2026-10-23

Designer Hassan Rahim shares a simple habit for young designers: keep a desktop folder of screenshots of unused directions from client presentations.

His argument: some of your best work dies on page 14 of a random R1/R2 deck, picked over or never seen again. Instead of letting it go, accumulate a "junk drawer" of moments you liked. After years, this folder of unused work becomes better than any mood board—a genuine loophole for creative block. Not for repurposing, just for self-inspiration.
