What role does the basic Principles of Design have in your work process? Do you think of them consciously while work? Is it an after thought or something that comes naturally that you don't even think about? Are there any general hard and fast rules that you apply or think work in all designs?

everything I (and most designers) do relates back to basic design principles, either following them or breaking them – the only time I have to consciously think or talk about design fundamentals/principles is when a client wants to sh** all over them and I have to explain to them why it's a bad idea

I constantly remind myself to consider scale. Most of what I do at my day-job is cramming 5lbs of content into 2lb. layouts. So, creating hierarchies is extremely important.
