“Sometimes design is premature optimization”

“This happens when the complexity of building out the design is greater than the certainty that it’s the right design.” -destraynor

This is why I don’t stress out about visual design – any more. Product design – yes, visual design – no. Too often I’ve seen visual design stall, distract, and diffuse product design questions.
