"When you get a job – say an ad for a drycleaner – many images come to mind, we all have preconceptions," Gill said. "My suggestion is to forget every image that comes to mind, forget everything you know about drycleaning.
"Instead of sitting at your computer, and looking at books, go to a drycleaner, and sit there. The way to get an interesting idea is to go to the source. Stay there until you have thought of something interesting about drycleaning. Then, listen to that idea and it will design itself."
