Back to Beliefs
Visual communication is more precise than text for design requirements
Evidence
Reference images consistently produce better AI design outputs than text-only descriptions
Implication
Design workflows should prioritize visual references and annotation tools over written specifications
Counter Belief
Detailed written specifications provide more precise control over design outcomes
Example Application
Using Dribbble screenshots plus physical product photos to communicate design aesthetic rather than writing detailed style descriptions
