Designing in plain ‘ol HTML and CSS could make easier. However, there are many features of the WordPress framework that you’ll miss out on. Read some of the WP documentation in the Codex to begin with:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Site_Design_and_Layout
I will also draw your attention to the body class attribute, which I find extremely useful when designing my WordPress CSS.

Good Luck, and have fun!
